why would u need to replace the frame because of a bent a-arm... and you usually dont replace frames.. u buy a new quad..

dont have the money for a new quad and the a arm wont line up with the hole due to the damage

Does that make it wrong 2 replace frames?.....anyway best be is to hook up w\ a local welder, hell bend it back and renforce it for ya

doesent make it wrong but once u part out ur atv and get money for the other stuff u have enough money with ur parts and with the money u saved on not buying a new frame to buy a quad.... frames arent cheap.. look at the price at www.lsracing.com

i can buy a frame off ebay for around 100
i dont have to go all out abd buy a aftermarket frame

Yeah i just bought another 2001 Frame, and swapped all my stuff over.....anyway u could always get another frame if u got a good deal on 1, that would be best but fixin it would work also but might not be a strong.......its all in what u can spend and what you prefer

Take it to a good welder, he could get it better than perfect in 15 minutes.

They aren't cheap but a brand spanking new frame from the factory is about $600. You can't even race on a LSR frame in the production class, so why would you buy one?

But.. that being said, it doesn't look too damaged. Should be easy to fix. Get a new a-arm, and reinforce the mounts.
