I just got off the phone with Mark Baldwin and we were talkin about a arms. He suggested that I go with Jb Racing. He said they are exact to Leager. There is almost no difference.

Does anyone have these?

How are they?

Have you had any Problems?

Post some Pictures of them.

Casey has them on his 400 as well as all the other JB Racing products. Hetrick's sells JB too, that's why he has them.

im think its JD performance that are the same as the leagers because an engineer from leager now works for JD performance apparently.
i have never heard of JB

Yes JD is the guy that worked for Laeger and his A-Arms look the same. He owns JD and used to work for Laeger.
Go to Baldwin Motorsports (http://www.baldwinmotorsports.com) and check JB out. They are 2 different Companies.

How does anyone like their Jd A arms?

I was thinkign Herrman, JD or JB? Which should i get?

I say Laeger, Houser, or JB. The Herrmann's seem to be built a bit heavy, but that is ok for the extra strength. Actually if Arens makes some +3 A-Arms, I would get those. If not, Houser.

JB stands for Jody Bateman. He is my motor builder. Just as good if not better then Mark Baldwin at motors + Mark would take to long. Mark's shop is 5 min away and JB racing is 15 minuets away. Jody's a-arms are just like laeger. Jody didn't work for laeger but all he does is copy the laeger design and sell them cheaper. Don't worry about how Baldwin sells them (the bushings thing). If someone is interested I’ll give you Bateman's shop # (should be cheaper then Baldwin’s). Jody has just about EVERYTHING you can think of for the 400. I’m trying to remember if he makes frames or not. I know he makes sub frames, a-arms, swingarms ect… Just about the only thing I would pick over the Bateman front end is the pro-tracks front end. If you have any questions for him just ask me for his #.
Hope I helped,
Later BG16
