Alba upper A-arms

I have both the uppers and a Denton stabilizer . Try a set of dofferent front tyres first ....I use Razors , they made a difference , then I put the Alba a arms on and they made it better again . The steering Dampner is only for those nasty rocks and the like that seem to come out of nowhere.
Definately wouldn't change anything now !

As you can tell by my sig that I run alba a-rms. Upper and lower. Also a steering damper.
I agree with 1prokiwi on the steering damper. I even took it off once and couldn't tell the difference with or with out it. But I bought it so I put it back on.
The a-arms have been the best money i've spent so far. There is almost no terrian out there that i can't just fly through now and with no worries.
In case you didn't know. The Alba a-rms are American Star Racing A-Arms.

The twitchiness goes away when you adjust the shocks to your weight and change the front tires. I put Holeshot 22x7x10 xc's on the front and I'd say most of the twitchiness went away. Save your money and put it towards something else. I really don't see the need to change the A arms while your sitting there with under-performing tires.

I have both..TBR(+0+1) and American star(+1+1)The american upper and lower are a fully ajustable..the TBR, just the uppers are fully ajustable...
My thoughts are...do you really need fully ajustable upper an lower a-arms? Seems to me the American Star's are harder to set up,but they all have Heim joints instead of ball joints(TBR)..you make the call.
I like both...and have had no problems with either.I run the Graydon steering dampner too (mostly for the desert)
Is TBR up and running again?

From what I know the new TBR setup will continue to have the adjustable heim joints on the uppers, where the difference will lie is where the arms connect to the spindle, they used to use standars ball joints, but now they are going to switch to a chrome-moly spherical heim in the bottom of the spindle similar to Roll arms. Also they have improved their jigs so the quality and tolerances will be improved. As soon as I can I'll post a pic of the old and new. P.S. I know firsthand that TBR has and continues to test and refine their products for the DS as Bryan and Ryan both have them. Stay tuned.
