[ryanowarrior]

Thanks Mark...good buyer too lol

Do you know what year the frame is? I seen in your other thread with parts for sale there is a tag on the frame on the upper shock hour mount, what does that say?

[ryanowarrior]

no sir i sure dont know what year...i could say early 2000's but i really dont know lol, its a sticker i got off ebay..

[rayman375]

Arens made strong frames, that's a good price too.

[sameltoe]

Would this make a good xc bike?
Im interested if you will ship...
sending pm...

Very nice frames!! I had one for several years they don't get as much recognition as some others but for a stock geometry frame their great. It would make a great xc build, snag those ars fx lt arms that are forsale too.. Off to a damn good start. If I still lived near the trees I'd build one forsure.

My buddy bought one these frames new back in 00-02. Very nice quality and tough as nails. Great seller and buyer also. Wish I wouldn't have to spend tax return on the house this year:(

Save them for future project, or sell local, shipping will kill any deal with those... unless you can ship thru a business... be prepared to ship for 140+... you can ship thru Greyhound bus, but that's still 60 bucks, and sketchy to me.

[J.B.]

I have received a frame using Greyhound and everything went well.

[rayman375]

I've had good luck recieving a frame from greyhound too.

[sameltoe]

We have a grayhound here and know of people who have shipped...But I found some shelf space :D

[rayman375]

You're going to like that Aren's frame, I have one as well and love it.

[1promodfan]

I've got an Arens frame too, and I love it!! There was an article a while back that had the Arens frame vs a Lonestar. They said the Arens was a much better frame, and it held up a lot better.

[89trx250r]

this is a pretty cool article from 99 with the arens bros about there frames and stuff

a tv scene.com/atv_interviews/john-arens-9-27-99

[sameltoe]

Hay Ryan heres an idea for shipping the airbox with the frame...I would think you can still fit the air box in the sub and ship it like this.

[sameltoe]

Just don't forget the grab bar and various mounts lol

I want to say it was an '02.

[sameltoe]

hope you don't mind that I posted the pics....

Is there a way to tell years?
Do these have a seriel number? or...

[rayman375]

To my knowledge there is no way to tell what year it is if you buy it used. Aren's did not stamp any numbers on their frames. The one that I have now is a bit different though at the front shock mount crossmember. It has three holes in it instead of the Aren's logo, it also does not have the rear upper engine mount.
