What is the best brand of A-Arms? If you like another type, list them. Also, if you have had problems with any, let me know.

I would not buy lone star becuse i seen to many stems and swingarm come from them not straight. I would go with laeger i have not seen bad stuff come from then.

A few years ago I ordered some new Houser A-arms from a distributer. When I got them it didn't take long to see that somehow I'd been shipped 1 upper left 1 upper right and 2 LOWER LEFT A-arms! When I got back to the distributer, they told me they'd "contact me with instructions on how to proceed". To my surprise I was instead contacted by John Houser who immediately sent out my lower right a-arm(before he got the wrong one back). Which settled me down enough to feel sorry for the poor soul that got 2 lower rights in his set! Anyway, the service matters a lot too, so for quality and service I have to give Houser's A-arms a BIG thumbs up! Thanks John!

I ride alot of trails and hillclimbs , but jump a little too. I just wanted something that would give my bike more stability in corners and most of all, good looks.;) I was looking at roll design +2's with upper chromed and lowers red with TCS with rezzies and powdercoating the springs red. Would this be a good setup and does anyone have any roll designs they could post pics of?

I will be running Arens LT. Great a-arm for a good price. If I wasn't running Arens, I would use Laeger or JB.

does it really make a diffrance? as long as u get a big name product u wont have a problem, the burgards do the same thing as the leagers and are cheaper.

a arms arent like axles. obviously rpm is better than durablue. but other than those rip off ebay arms, there hasnt been quality issuues with any a arm. id base it more on customer service and price. those are the big factors

you can get uppers and lowers chrome...i'm not sure about the colors because i had bought them used (chromed already) and had the lowers powdercoated by pappy

was the chrome chipped off the lowers? I ride in pore rocks and was worried about that.
