Between those 3, you really cant go wrong. All are of equal craftsmanship, all 3 work well. I know LSR offers a great warranty and customer service has been top notch for us.

I agree, out of the three... I say pick which one you think looks the best on your quad. None of them should give you any problems and all are made equally well. I'm assuming standard travel? If I had to pick, I'd probably take Houser. I like their standard arms and think they are beefed up nicely.

I agree with Houser. All three manufacturers make great products from what I hear. Houser arms appear to be the best "bang for the buck" when it comes to ST especially.

I plan on getting some ST Housers for my 400EX soon and I plan on putting LT Laeger's on my 450R when I get it later in the year.

You should have checked out KOQ RACINGS +2 standard travel, they are very comparable to the others, but only 399.00

Those are all good brands, but they are all the top expensive brands.

Other places make just as good of a-arms for less money because they are not as well known. You can get more bang for the buck.

Places like : Burgard, ATV fourplay, HRE, JDperformance sell their better a-arms for the price of the sport arms of those companies. And if you want their sport a-arms they'll be even less.

Check out

for a good deal $500
jdperformanceatv - $575 or $500 for rec series.
HREATV.com - $550 st race series
Burgardcycle.com - arms for $450

Those burgard arms can be had for $399 on ebay as well and are plain junk. They bust balljoints very frequently. Notice they use the same balljoint on the lower arm that's on the upper arm! Quite dangerous actually. Burgard does sell a unit with heavy duty balljoints, but its the same price as the other "top brand" arms listed.

JD arms are good, but are the same price as the top brands posted too...

atvfourplay are good as well.

Not a fan of KOQ arms, they look poorly built, but I have not had a set in my hand so I really cant say for sure, but I know their LT arms are about the scariest looking setup I've seen with the tubing butt welded to the shock mount, instead of using one solid piece. Not a good idea IMO.

if you call dave at jd performance and tell him you dont want to break bank he will sometimes knock the price of shipping off. alot of times he will work with you. prob one of the nicest guys i know and he wont try to ever really upsell you at all. he only sells you what you need. he stuff is top notch too. i highly recomend jd to everyone.

I second never using the KOQ arms. They are probably the worst looking set of arms that I have ever seen. The welds are terrible looking and I would never bolt any of their products on my quad even if they were free.
