Default Front A Arm Opinions Please

I have found that the stock A arms on the DS are very limited on tuning. I purchased a set of stock length adjustable A arms and when I received them wasn't sure I really wanted to install them. They have all the tuning adjustments I was looking for but seem very short lifed. The top ball joint is not sealed from dust and water and no grease fittings at all. Are most of the aftermarket A arms like this or did I just not do enough shopping around?

those ball joints are actually pretty quality joints.... many people spray lube on there once and awhile but your not supposed to.. just atracts more dirt....the have a chemical added to the metal that lubes itself.. theres a big word for it i forget.... but thats the way there supposed to work.. check out a quad magazine sometime and checks the pics of all the racers..all the a-arm companies are switching to that style of upper joint.....
