Default +3 or +6 a-arms?

I hear what you are saying, don't want to come across like I am bagging on the warrior, owned one of them myself. My main point was when I put down on paper what I had to do to the warrior to really improve the power to where I wanted it, it made sense to me to buy something else. I may be in the same position as kyle in that I have too much (for me) into my Raptor 660 to ditch it. Hope he finds some extended a-arms that he is happy with.

My factory a-arms were worn out, bushings and ball joints. It was cheaper to replace them with aftermarket a-arms than the factory ones so I got the ASR a-arms off of E-bay. I think I got the 'sport star plus' which came with adjustable upper and lower heim joints and I only paid like $350. They also came with the heavy duty extended tie rods. I usually don't buy products that are off-brand, but when it comes to Raptor 350 a-arms you really don't have many choices to begin with.
These arms seem to be well built and have held up well for me so far. The only complaint I have is with the optional tie rod end heim joints I installed from ASR. After they get muddy they get a little tight and it's harder to turn, so I recommend just usung the factory style ball joints.

Turtler I'm with you on getting another quad. You can find nice '02 & '03 660's for $2000-3000 all day long. I have well over $3000 invested in my Warrior and I still don't quite have the performance of a 660. But, for the most part I like my Warrior and I'm with Recon99 on being different and seeing the look on peoples faces when they realize a WARRIOR can go THAT fast!!!!????? I guess I like being the underdog sometimes, and having a slower quad and riding with people with faster quads will only make you a better driver because you have to give it all it's got to keep up and learn how to take turns faster and be either on the gas or on the brake and nowhere in between.
