when i bought my quad the guy said he would give me some stock a-arms he had for it, so since i thought they were stock i just burried them back in the shop and forgot about them. for some reason i got them out today and i got to looking at them and they are not stock a-arms. i saw that where they bolt onto the quad that there are greese zerts where my stock ones dont have them. i also found that they are a silver color with metallic
flakes in it, where my stock ones are just the regular grey. the stickers that were on them are almost wore clear off but i could see where the stickers had red in them. they are also a little bigger around than my stock ones too. would anyone know what brand these a-arms would be? i was kind of suprized that i didnt notice this sooner. here are some pics i got of them, just click the pic to make it bigger.
thanks

they kinda resemble old roll-designs. if they're not roll-design, they're off a yfz

edit: they're aff a yfz450, i looked at them a little closer, the way the ball joint is welded to the arm is a yamaha design

i did some research on yfz a arms since you said that and im pretty sure they are. im gessing that they fit on the 400ex since he had them? would they be the same length as the 400 a arms? are they any better than stock or should i not bother with them and just sell them? the thing that got me was the sticker that was on the front of them, it just made it look like they are aftermarket. here is a pic of the yfz ones i found.

yep there yfz arms alright, never heard of anybody putting them on an ex so i dont really know, my guess would be no, is the stud on the one bent or is it just the pic?
