You could also wait for Arens to have their's out. Suppose to be better and cheaper.

Those hermanns look trick....kind of like walsh a arms.

but i really shouldn't pick because i haven't ridden on either of these a arms.

i have both, my old ex has the housers, and the ex/crf has the herrmanns, the housers positioning seems to set the quad lower, but their kingpins suck, thay are held in with tin snap rings, herrmanns kingpins are awesome, bolted solid, herrmanns are cheaper, and i definately like the herrmans better, the ride height is most likely due to the weight loss with the crf, cuz i robbed the shocks off the houser, ex for the herrmann crf. go with herrmann

I had houser lt's a-arms on my 400ex and i had a problem with my quad sitting too low for a while until i adjusted my ride height, I have a full herrman chassi for my 450f on ordr right now so i will tell you which ones i like better when i get the herrmanns.

I would say as well wait to arens comes out with their long travel a arms..

600$ is a really good price, buying any other is a rip off, unless the arens a arms are crap too but i doubt it.

Houser, Herrman or Aernes?


You can't go wrong with any of them. They are all great.

I am going with Houser. Cause i can get them through the quadshop and they are cheap. And they are good quality

Is there anyone with good service? I tried to call the Quadshop a bunch of times, then when I finally got a hold of them, they said they would call back in ten minutes i gave them my number and they never returned the call.

Seems like there is more LT arms out all the time. The Gibson arms look very sweet and are suppose to be good. I like the Walsh the best, but the price is a little out of hand.

yea Gibson arms are fairly new. Awesome geometry and all. Helps keep ya from scraping berms with the front end. That's what i'm running next year.

Im not hating on Merrelle because i was gonna get them until I went to order my PEp Zps longtravels and i told Mark Baldwin that i was gonna run merrell's and he laughed at me:( ,so then i got suggested JRD which are the same as Roll
