two of my buddies have 400ex's that have had the bottom a-arm where the shock mounts to like rip right off... so we welded a piece of 1/8 steel under it and it has heled up pretty well so far. But i would say they arnt that durable :huh

that happend to me on BOTH of my stock arms, happend on the right side first, so we welded a plate under it and welded the shock mount back onto the plate, then about 2 weeks later it happend on the left side so thats then i said screw it and didnt bother fixings it....and bought some quality a arms
