View Full Version : Best place to buy a-arm bushings for 87 250x?

I have a chance to buy an 87 250x for my wife, needs a few things, A-arm bushings is one of them (most costly). I was just wondering what the price was. Never really see them for Honda's, just the Yammi's.

Thanks in advance, Marty :D

I just got A-arm bushings for my 1986 250R and my 99 400EX from Helm. They have a small ad in the back of Dirt Wheels. They seem to be of good qualilty and are about $100.00 for a complete set. If you can't find their ad, let me know and I will look up a phone number for them.

I bought me a set of the Helm bushings for my 300ex. I went to go to change them over, and I found myself wandering why I made the purchase:confused: My stock bushings were and are just fine. If you know you need new bushings, I'm sure my "brand new" neoprene or urethane bushings (which ever it is) will fit on a 250x, if you are interested. I have not heard of the stock bushings going bad.

Thanks for the info. The wife has decided to get something with electric start instead, so the 250x is out of the picture now. Thanks again, your help is appreciated.

Just to let you guys know,I just bought some sintered bronze(or brass) bushings at my local atv shop(not the dealer) for my 300ex, and they cost $88 plus tax.It does pay to shop around.The name of the shop is Northwest ATV and it's located in Bellingham WA, if anyone is interested.
