Can't go wrong with Leager. Denton Racing makes a good arm ($700.00).

I bought tbr and had great luck with them except for getting and awnsering machine every time you call. Everyone that has riden it that I race with has said its one of the smoothest frontends they have seen. But there are alot out there just done get something with a ball joint lower or you will regret it the first day you land wrong ive seen it happen to many times someone coming down wrong and breaking a ball joint.

hmm...aight thanx. i will look into all three of those. Im thinking i will go with the Elka Triple Rate w/rezzies for my front shocls. I have noticed that the Works w/rezzies are considerably cheaper though. Would it hurt to go with works?

We picked up Strong Arm a-arms on ebay for about $350. They say that they're selling a couple on ebay at a time to advertise. They don't take special requests on colors, so if they don't have what you want listed, be patient, they'll list more. I got a shiny black powdercoated set of +2's. They sell them on their website for $200 more than that.
fourwheelerguy is the seller's name you can search under in ebay. I just looked and they're $355 buy it now.

hey you get what ya pay for just remember that. You need to remember that your life is riding on these things. Im not saying they are not good but there is a reason some are more money then others.

I agree but would not say that I have been to the hsd shop and i know that there are gncc racers that use them. These arms are beefy note the name strong arm. If anything i would be scared to use what your uppers are being held on by with the tbr's

what is the problem with tbrs uppers? I dont see anything wrong with them. I do work at a mx shop and see alot of a-arms I though bang for the buck they seemed good. I dont know what could be the issue but I have never seen strong arm a-arms do you have a link to them or is it only avalable on e-bay?

ok I compared both the fact that you think the ball joint upper and lower is stronger then the hime joint lower and ball joint upeer is funny. those srong arm a-arms are strong looking other then the ball joint sheer point where the problem is with a-arms. the weak spot is that ball joint it doesent matter how "strong" the rest of the a-arm is the ball joint is your weak spot. IT looks close to the lonstar a-arms that have the same ball joint and the same ball joint failure seen it a bunch of time personally im sure ill se it again. for 200 bucks its not bad but its got a weakness no matter what the name is. I know alot of racers that use alot of products does not make it a good product.
