full flight a-arms, are they junk??
been looking on ebay at some arms and u can get a set of any full flight arms for just under 400$$

So whats the catch??

also the ASR arms are going pretty cheap

So are they any good or should i just spend the extra and get houser or LSR

There's no way in hell that I'd run those heim joints but I like to get dirty from time to time.

o ya btw i plan on putting these on my 426 which i plan on just messing around on the mx track, not racing just jumping and going fast

Just in the market for some arms and an axle cheap so ill either buy new arms cheap like the Full Flight or ASR

Or ill snag a good set of used houser or LSR arms mayb some Roll design if i can find a good set within my price range

But im looking for some +2 ST arms so i can run 450 shocks

Just remember you get what you pay for. I will say I love my Houser arms and I picked them up for about 300 bucks on here.

I have the fullflight +2+1's.
They also have a lifetime warranty.
They seem to be very well built.
I like the heims because my frame is slightly tweaked.
I don't think I could have gotten bushing style arms to fit.
Also, you can't beat the price!

ok personally i wanta get a set of housers or LSR

But i just wanted something to fall back on if that doesnt work out and it seems like there are mixed emotions on the Full flight and ASR

i have had my ASR a-arms for 6 years and only replaced my outer heims about 1 year ago. I go through mud and sand too. I also spray them with either WD40 or some graphite or teflon spray. I have had no problems

i had a set on my 03 400ex, i rode tracks ad raced, the heims dont have a good way to lube them, they wear bad and then shortly after i sold my quad one of the aarms broke, i would never buy them again, save a little bit of oney and buy something worth the money, you get wat u pay for

Well i sold my 400 to put money in my 426 so ive got the money to get a decent set of LSR or Houser i was just wondering if its worth saving the money and going with something different

I wouldnt run either one. I hate heim joints I've never found any that last long before theres play in them. They rattle and squeak...... I vote houser.....

Well, i was sorta leaning toward the LSR and then having Both LSR arms and axle then mayb a + 1 1/4 LSR swingarm

But whats better between houser and lsr

I can pick up a set of lsr sport +2+0 arms for 450$$ on ebay
