I am working on a 2002 SP700 that has been beat to death. It looks like crap, but runs and drives very well.

The one issue is the front A-arms have a ton of slack where they meet the frame. When you grab a front wheel and force it to roll forward and back, there is a distinct clunk as the a-arm slides forward and back on its bushings at the frame.

Anyone have experience replacing these for a similar problem? Do they come as a kit from Polaris, or do I need to buy bushing components individually?

Any help would be appreciated.

You can buy long and short bushings separately for it. They just slide into the holes in the end of the arm. It's a fairly cheap fix for a serious problem. You can see them at Polaris Parts. http://parts.polarisind.com/Assemblies.asp

 

the bushings are easy to replace.

 

It's so simple a caveman can do it.
I did my Trailblazer when it had the same problem.
