American star racing products, a-arms to be exact. If you have had them or know any one who has, I would like to know your opinion. Is it junk or not?

I have them on my c-dale and they are for sale!

Handling isn't the greatest, tie-rods always come loose, and the overall quality just isn't very good IMO.....I should have some Walsh arms soon...(hopefully)

To sum it up, NO they aren't junk, but they are NOT a top quality arm what-so-ever

there ok, i have them on my 400ex.........if i were to buy new ones they would not be asr. but i have to say, they are holding up. sec. season with them and the powder coat is come'n off. burgards are ok, i have a burgard stem, its not that good of a stem so don't know how good the aarms are.
but i wouldn't get asr.
try strong arm a-arms they look very nice ans strong.

this is so VERY true... i had a set and they are NOT junk.... they also are NOT top quality... for the price $399 compared to say Walsh $1000, i dont see how you can go wrong if you are on a budget...

But for another $50 Burgards are a better product. And if your can scrape up $400 you can get another $50.

Nope they're for a 400EX. One of them is shorther than the other under the weight of the quad.

As far as the A arms, I have seen burgards products, & I will buy them when its time but I need to get a new carrier first. That will be from burgard also, and soon too.

I would say NO on the ASR's. I thought they would be decent but my buddy is running them on his raptor and he has had numerous problems with the heim joints coming loose after just 3 months of riding on them. The tie rods are real cheap too....

I was looking on e-bay and found a package deal with some "action racing" a-arms and works shocks w/ rezzys. I am kinda on a budget, so I was wondering if anyone had these a-arms and how they were??
