Default Loose Scrambler 500 A-Arm

I noticed today that the A-Arm on my '01 Scrambler 500 4x4 was a little loose (it has some play to it). The bushings look good. Is there an easy way to fix this? I tried to tighten up the nuts on the outside, but I don't think I have the right socket and wrench?!?!?!

if its loose, then your bushings are worn. they may look like they are good, but they need replaced. EPI sells a good replacement set, reasonably priced too.

Hmmmm... that isn't bad. Are they hard to install? I have every wrench in the world, but can't find one that fits on those nuts?!?!?!?

That dont mean bushings are bad they could have rattled loose mine have and bushing is fine just need some loc tite on em. Do u have grease fittings on em? make sure they are full if u have grease gun just couple pumps no more then 2 or 3. if u live somewhere hot then factory loc tite on bolts could have melted off. but if u feel the need then do bushings but not needed in my opinion
