I have a set of JRD 400ex long travel a-arms on my 300ex and they work great. They are a local new jersey company but they well know enough where companies like Axis and Elka have heard of them. They are quite similiar to roll design a-arms.

very heavy, strong though. they use these weird type of bushings that wear out fast. i would definitly get a few spare sets. their heims are pretty good.

no no no, they look very similar but are really different if you look close, especially on the bottom of the lower arms.

I swear there identical but I could be wrong. Post a pic of your bottoms I'd like to see the difference.

Here's a pic of my bottom arms, this was at the primer stage of painting my arms.

the shock mount is different and where the jrd's come together near the balljoint i think theres a split.

Thanks for clearing that up, I always wondered the diff between the two and now I clearly see why.

Thanks Jersey and nice quad btw.
