go on ebay. there are fullflight a-arms all over. theyre pretty good for the price (around $350). i think they have a couple different options but i would go with +2+1's

I agree the Full Flight a arms are great! They are built very well. I bought a set of +3+1 Full Flight a arms (For use with YFZ-450 Shocks) with the 12 point adjustable Chromoly Heims. They are Powder Coated Silver and they look awesome. By paying a little extra and getting the 12 point adjustable Chromoly Heims I was able to upgrade my front suspension even more. I ended up buying a new set of take off 2010 YFZ-450R spindles, Hubs, Brakes, steering stem and steering stem flag and adjusting the a arms to make it work.

 

A buddy of mine has a 2008 YFZ-450 and my Banshee IMOA rides better than his YFZ. the Banshee has a great rear suspension set up. I read some where that all the Yamaha techs spent there time on the Banshee perfecting the rear suspension trying to keep the rear tires planted and on the ground. They must have been wore out by the time they got to the front suspension. My Banshee with the stock front suspension rode like a hay wagon compared to my new set up. Everything fit perfect and nothings binding like it did when I had the YFZ-450 a arms on there. I have about 30hrs of trail riding, jumping, and cruising on the new set and there are ABSOLUTELY NO signs of ware or problems.

 

Maybe you guys can answer a question for me, why do most riders prefer other brands of a arms (Houser, Fox, and so on) over the Full Flights? I've went over mine with a fine tooth comb and I can't find any short comings what so ever, and they have a life time warranty that they stand behind?
