I bought some Houser long travel arms that were to be +3. However the arms I receive seem a little short. There is a mystery around what I already have on my bike. They were suppose to be jannsen +2/+1 standard travel. But with a 3:2 wheel, it measures 47 inches. So this leads me to beleive that I actually have +1/+1 already.
The houser arms are the same length as my jannsen arms.

Could someone please measure their arms? Tell me how you measured, what they measure and what length they are( + ?).

Any help appreciated.

Dirtmonkey, could you do me a favor and measure the arm itself? LIke from the center of the mount to end of the arm less the heim joint.

Nice quad btw.

on a stock 400, the front width is 43" and the rear is 45", so +2's would make it around 47" in the front.

Great thanks guys. That was good info. Also I'm happy to know I recieved the correct arms.
I guess I got some bad info on what stock width was also. Kindof threw and kink in the equation.

Appreciate the help.
