American Star A-Arms

[400exracer511]

i am looking for aftermarket a-arms and i dont want to spend more that 500 dollars. i was looking on ebay and they have these american star a-arms. does anyone have these or know anyone who has them that can give me a report on how they are holding up? I am also looking at burgard arms. is there any other set for under 500 that are good?

and service overall is great too, wich IMO burgard lacks, Izzy(guy who owns burgard) told my friend he would send him free blaster a-arm bushing after we met him so my friend called in and gave him all the info and 3 months later still no bushings.

2 of my jd performance a-arm bushings were all done after one season and after talking to jd she had some on the way, but they got lost in the mail, she then sent 2 more sets and both of those got lost, finaly she sent them priority and they got here. I had a feeling maybe she thought i was scamming her but she sent more anyway, very nice to deal with.

As for the a-arms, Jd and burgard are stunningly similar, my friend has 400ex burgard and i have ex Jd's and i cant realy tell them apart, if there is a diff then its in the geometry and both sets have proved themselves...

American Star is a pile of crap. Trust me dont get them. I have heard a zillion bad things about them. In addition, my friend uses a set of ASR +3's on his raptor and hes been having problems with them after only running them 4 months. Look into JD performance, burgard, or Houser for a set of decently priced arms that are good quality...
