Default DS650 aftermarket a arms

Im looking for some STRONG aftermarket a-arms for my 2000 DS 650. Is anyone still manufacturing these? I see lonestar has some, but Ive heard rumors about them.

Thanks for the info,

Gary

Rocky Mountain ATV has the armadillo's and they look pretty tough being Chromoly. ASR's are on Ebay and they look pretty nice as well. I was thinking about getting ASR upper a-arms for mine. I like how they have the heim joints on them instead of ball joints for the steering. Does anybody know if they are any good?

Ok, I called Fireball. Easy to deal with. I like the new ball joints they come with. To be honest, ASR arms worry me a bit. They just dont look as beefy. Lone stars are quite expensive, considering you have to use 2 stock ball joints, and mine are shot. At 125 a piece, that really takes the price way up.

So, has anyone used the fireball arms, and will they take alot of abuse???

One quick Note... Armadillo offers lifetime warranty. I spoke to Brian Craft and I had a defective set of A-Arms (the shock placement was off, remember Gary ya loaned me some for the dune ride) and they replaced them free of charge. Price is right and they do hold up abuse. Ball Joints are relatively cheap on them. Brian also mentioned a client called them up admitting they crashed and wrecked his a-arms.. he told me he replaced them as well. Unheard of eh? Something to consider.
