They are good quality A-arms that you shouldn't have any issues with. Same proven Laeger-style standard travel design.

Sorry, Mine were on the quad when I bought it.

Hellbound Racing (http://www.hellboundracing.com/product.htm) carries Herrmann stuff. I hear they are a pretty good place to get parts. I didnt see the price there, so if it isnt on there just call and ask.

I didn't know that Gust was a design engineer. I know he hauls but on a quad but I didn't realize that he knows so much about sturctural design of suspension components. Of course I'm bieng sarcastic. Just because he's a pro and can ride a quad really well doesn't mean that he has a clue about the components. I'm not trying to say he doesn't know but too many of you just assume that the pros have just as much knowledge as the people designing the part.

The powder is starting to chip at the bottom but it is most likely because of roost and rocks. This is the best picture I have of the front end.

Yeah that's Herrmann's LT front end ^^^, very nice setup. He's looking at their standard travel arms though, completely different design.

Only with the old ball joints, they may have been updated. Herrmann is a great company and makes great products. He stands behind his products more than ANY other fabricator. I run a very large race team out of Greater Boston Motorsports and have dealt with many other companies. Herrmann products are available thru Ronnies mail order. Call 800-253-7667 and speak with Aaron. Tell him Scott Samuel told you to call and to hook up the price. They are the largest distibutor of Herrmann products in the USA. Again, contact 300exHILLER on a PM and he will explain his experience. He had a small problem with the ball joints and Herrmann sent him new ones overnight - free! How many other companies (in any industry) would do that?

Call Ronnies. My ball joints have been bad but the arms are great. He doesn't make the ball joints so don't put it on Brad Herrmann. His & Ronnies customer service is awsome. I have a Herrmann Stem as well. I can put an order in on monday and have the part at my house and powdercoated by the weekend. One time I ordered a stem on tuesday morning and he had it at my door thrusday night as I was leaving for a GNCC.

Sorry to say but it is his ball joint problem. He is the one that decided to use them with his arms. I doubt someone forced him to use them. That is if he actually designed the arms himself. I know lots of other companys that have parts in stock. I'm sure he does offer great customer service but like I said when he or whoever decided to use those ball joints it makes it his problem. There are a lot of options as far as ball joints go.

Here are their standard travel A Arms on our 05 TRX . They are +2. I was the first one to Break on of their Arms they told me last year after hitting a Rock at the Wisp GNCC. They held up good and are built a little to good I think. From hitting the rock, and them not breaking sooner Trashed my frame! I would recomend them and they are good to work with.
