Default Armadillo A-arms

Aside from Rocky Mountain ATV where can I get them? The standard lenght is "out of stock" on Rocky Mountain ATVs website. Which brings me to my next question, what year would be the standard length? Aren't the newer DS650's narrower than earlier models?

Thanks Bombsaint. I'm one step ahead of you, I e-mailed the guy already. I think I ordered my skid plate from that guy. Yes waiting does indeed suck! lol.

I got my A-arms in today. They do in fact have zerk fittings, which I'm very happy about. What is nice about them is the ball joints and bushings are readily availabe and reasonably priced. Now I can put those suckers on and ride the beast again.

YA, know i looked at mine today and noticed they do. sorry about that. also some aother good info you should know is i had a crash two weeks ago. it was a head on collision. the front left tire hit so hard that the ball joint shafts that thread into the a-arms actually broke off in the arms. top and bottom ball joints on the left side. the only thing left holding the wheel to the bike was the tie rod. i had a extra set of ball joints and i could not believe it. those a-arms were not bent one bit. holy$%#$% not even tweaked. all that force to bust off two ball joint shafts and there was no bends. after using a easy out to get the broke shafts out of the arms the new ones went back in and everything is back to new minus the fender, it was ripped of and the bracket was busted but it has been reshaped and welded. just thought you would like to hear that these a-arms are pretty tough as well as reasonably priced.
