Are these any good? There is like 20 sets on ebay rite now, i was thinking about buying a pair but didn't know if they were any good, i don't want 2 waste my money, are these quality a-arms?

 

I would say they are worth the money,plus they have a life time warranty.....I can vouch to that

 

didn't u go over a hill wen u had ur NOS on and bent them all 2 hell? do they have a website?

 

I have them and think they are great. The only draw back is, I used a pesssure washer once and wash all the grease out of the joints one time and they squeeked like he!!. I had to take them apart and hand grease them. There are no zerks or robber botties over the joints. But that was the only problem i've had.

 

hmmmm, thats not 2 good, i use a pressure washer alot n i don't want 2 b taking them apart all the time, is it hard 2 grease them by hand?

 

I have their full set on my cannondale and the quality is very good. I just don't see how those joints can hold up for very long. There is no way to lube them and it seems like after time they will get sloppy. Does anyone know if you can get these fittings with a grease zerk in them?

 

Use a spray lubricant before u ride and after u wash your bomb. That will keep them lubed and prevent them from "squeeking like hell"[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
I've had my upper a-arms for a year now and they have withstood all the punishment i have given them.So far.

I'm thinking about picking up a set as well, $200 is a sweet price. I would have already bought them if they had a zerk on them. I'm not very partial to extra work, though I think I could deal with just spraying on some teflon or some other decent lubricant. Speaking of which, does anyone have any opinion on what kind of lubrication would be best for these things, Teflon, Silicon or whatever? I've got three different kinds of lubricants from three companies & just curious if anyone thinks one works better than another.

 

Why couldn't a zerk be installed in the joint? A small hole in the center of the tube is not going to affect the strenghth of the tube (look at your original a-arms).
