Ok, I need some help

I need new a-arms and I just ordered some a-arms but i am not sure they are what I wanted. I got some Dateman 3+3" chrome a-arms and i paid $550 + shipping. I definately need new a-arms cause my stock ones broke and cannot be fixed. The problem is is i will not be able to get the a-arms for like a month. Does anyone have any a-arms they would like to reccomend to me and tell me where you got them and how much you paid. And to tell you the truth I think I would just rather powder coat them so I dont need chrome. Also, do they make Larger a-arm guard? Thanks alot, please help me.

Oh and finally, will I need to get new brake cable and longer tie-rods to make sure it can reach the longer distance. Thanks

I dont have longer a-arms but, I have been looking into it. I think most arms come with tie rods (could be wrong). you will for sure need longer break lines, and your shocks will no longer be set up right cause now the wheels have more leverage to compress the shock. your suspension will probably be really squishy.

A friend of mine has some Laegers +2s on his 400. The tie rods came with it, and with the +2s you will not need longer brake lines, stockers work fine. +3 i dont know about.

You can't powdercoat a-arms! It will ruin (melt)the ball joints.

All aftermarket a-arms I've seen have removable ball joints.

88' 250R many extras
