J.A. these guys are right , those asr arm have crap hiems on them. I was following my buddy on his ds and watched as the hiem broke when in tight woods , in third gear on the gas ! He's ok BUT he pulled a 3 in. round stump out of the ground and came within inches of surfing a 3-4 ft. round oak tree when the tire went flying in the air and the lower arm dug a huge trench in the dirt . He did take the bars in the gut and bruised his chest up pretty good . Be carefull .

 

Well thanks for all the good advice on this topic, i have nothing but good things to say about the performance of mine.. it is crap that i had to grind them to make them work.. that alone makes them pretty shaddy, but so far they have performed flawless, but ill start checking them for cracks and stuff.. i dont want to land big air and break the joint...
well good thing they have a lifetime warrenty!
thanks guys

Thanks for your replies.

It appears that the performance of the ASR upper a-arms are a good improvement over stock. No one has argued about the improved handling.

My questions now turn to durability of the ASR upper a-arms:

1. How long have you owned ASR uppers?
2. Besides the a-arms rubbing the shocks, what mechanical problems have you had?

Thanks again for your time.

 

A agree the ASR's are crap. I've had mine for about a year now. And for the last 4 months or so they have been getting looser and looser in the joints[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] My next set will be a full set from TBR.

 

Eaglecollector: Are the top a-arms going bad on you or just the bottoms?

 

Unfortunately for me it's both. I set my toe at 3/8" out but i can't remember what i set the camber and caster at. I thought I had written it down but it's not in my DS file[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
