I just got my September issue of ATV SPORT in today and Houser Racing list A-Arms for Cannondale. They come with plated ball joints, and have adjustable camber (do not have adjustable caster I dont guess),and light weight tie rods. Powdercoat-$525, Chrome tops- $565, LONG TRAVEL A-ARMS $800. Ive seen a few products of this company on peoples quads in the mags. but I dont know the qaulity of them or the companys reputation with there customers. Does any one have any info for me? I want to get some a-arms in a few months when I get my shocks rebuilt W/res.on front + adjustable comp. and reb.

I just got the Houser long travel arms for my 250R. They are very high quality and a very sturdy design. I am using the Elka shocks front and rear with the very long 19 3/8 inch shock up front. I would highly recommend this setup. I just got the suspension on yesterday and today I am putting on my ESR310 kit, so it will be a while before I can really pound this ****. These components make the stock stuff look like it belongs on a child's atv.
You can get all of that from Marty at the quad shop. www.quad shop atv.com He offers discount pricing on large orders or a arm/shock combo's.

How much is it going to cost you to get your shocks rebuilt w/res and 3 way adjustments? I haven't had a chance to contact Ohlins about getting mine revalved yet.

Ridzhard, thanks for the info. I looked at the site and I must say that the A-arms seem to be of good value. Those Elka's are awsome reading what was printed about them they seem to be better quality and value compared to Axis,Pep,Works,ect. The Ohlins on my C-Dale are the only high quality shocks Ive ever owned. I would love to see what a complete set of Elka's or any of the others feel like. Awsome88250R I haven't contacted any one yet about reworking my shocks. It will be a few months before I will have the money,plus I just started racing in a series points race at my local track and it want be over until Oct.27. We race every weekend so I can't have any down time. I may call around and find the best Place and Deal this week so I will know about how much I can expect to pay. If I do I will let you know. Im guessing that the front of your C-Dale wasn't overly tight, and you are going to have to get your shocks revalved. Man I hoping it was a simple fix,but after you get them done I beleive you will love them.
