Alright, I am in need of a huge favor, I need some mounted pics of someone with Burgard A-arms to snap some pics from different angles for me. I think I have mine mounted upside down, backwards, and any other way that I could have screwed it up.

Thanks in advance!

Are those arms 1" forward? The uppers are definetlly on the wrong side but the lowers appear to have the shock mount on the arm more towards the rear of the arm so that's why I'm asking if there 1" forward. If they are the was not a good choice for a 400EX. The more I look at your picture if those aren't 1" forward then you might have the lowers on backwards as well. 0 forward arms should have the shock mount on the arm closer to the front of the arm. Make sure your shock isn't sitting at an angle from the top mount to the lower arm.

Yes, they are 1" forward....can you please explain your answer further. I have an extended swingarm also.

The extended swingarm will definetlly help. I think we talked about this before but what my concern would be with running 1"forward arms on a 400ex is that the quad in stock form already has push in the frontend. By moving the arms forward it would only make it worse but by running a longer swingarm you should be right back to stock with the wieght bias.

Hey TBD, that is why I was confused, I thought that you had said that if I had an extended swingarm, it would equal it out. But thanks for reminding me. I hope I can get those arms swapped out without taking everything off. I think I can.
