My friends run a design VERY similar and theirs are Houser. However, they ride YFZs and Houser has changed their design a few times with MGC and such. Although I am a little confused with the removable lower ball joint. They [houser] also add their gusset below the lower a-arm tube. Jodi (JB) adds the gusset to the top side of the lower a-arm to strengthen the shock mount.

See my pic below of the Houser A-arms. This is a stock photo from Google images with a different lower ball joint.

They do look a LOT like Laegers. Laeger does use grease zirk fittings on the lower arm where it attaches to the frame though...

I retract my statement about them being Houser. That removable ball joint wants me to believe they are Laegers, but without that grease zerk. Now I'm lost.

JBs will have 1 1/8" tubing on the lowers with a 7/8 diameter cross tube. Uppers arms will be made from 7/8 tubing.

Leagers will be made from 1" tubing on the lowers with a 3/4 diameter U shaped cross tube and have 3/4 tubing for the upper arms. Upper arms may be 7/8 I don't know if they made them sililar to the pro trax upper arms.

Hope that helps.

cheers
