:confused: ON MY 400 EX WHEN I RIDE IN THE DUST THE FRONT A ARMS START TO SQUEEK. IS THIS JUST CAUSE OF THE DUST OR IS IT A MECHANICAL PROBLEM?

r u sure its ur a-arms and not ur shocks, if it is ur shocks get some wd-40 and squrt it on and let it sit and after a ride, it will be gone, if its ur a-arms find out which on it is and take it off and take the dust seals out ( the lil metal pieces) and grease inside the the lil hole where the dust seals go and then grease ur seals
