I know there are a TON of these but oh well sorry guys. and we are talkin about the cheaper long travel versions (PRICE IS A huge FACTOR HERE), and if you want give the name on the shocks you would mate with a-arms

i dont really have an opinion, but I think that the Final- Flight should be Full-flight.

I broke a heim joint off of an american racing std travel arm 2 years ago. I don't know if they've changed much, but that's my only experience with them.

if price is a concern check out smc fabrication. Great arms with a great warranty

I had a hard time deciding between JB Laeger, and Houser, when I got mine.

Went with JB beacuse I found a nice used set for a good price.

thats going to be normal from riding. If you ride hard, you are bound to break something. All I have heard is great things about ASR arms. Acually, when I buy some a arms in the summer, it will be the +2 PSP Arms from there.

If money is a factor, why are you buying LT arms? Buy a set of decent standard travel arms, like Houser, and use the extra money to have GT Thunder modify, re-valve, and re-spring your front shocks. "Long Travel" refers to the amount of shock shaft travel, not suspension arm travel, so you probably wouldn't notice the difference between the two, especially if you're not at least a Pro or A class racer. It's mainly for added tuneability. Just my $.02

That is a good point. I have recieved a nice deal on a set of +2 i-SHOCKS ST. so I may go with those. any other pointers that anyone wants to add they are MUCH appreciated. I am not very experienced in this area. :confused:

Hermans or Burgards are on the cheaper end and also don't have those crappy heim-joints that you have to replace all the time

I have the +2 Herrmann Racing. I don't know about being on the cheap side but they are BEEFY and have HUGE ball joints. I'm a big dude also @ 235lbs. They work awesome.
