murder_banshee Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Ok, this may have been covered before but I have searched and have not found anything. Does anyone know of an a-arm manufacturer that makes stock width a-arms that have replaceable ball joints? The ball joints on my stock arms are shot. I don’t want to widen the banshee with +2 arms, I ride some tight trails where it would be too tight of a fit. I know that I am sacrificing some performance by not going +2+1 long travel, but I like the stock width more for what I do. I have ridden banshees with +2 arms. Also, I don’t want to buy OEM arms on eBay if I can help it, since I’d like to be able to replace ball joints in the future if this is possible. Anyway, if anyone knows of arms that have replaceable ball joints that are stock width, or know of a manufacturer that would make some custom arms, please let me know.

You’d be even better off with +2 and 4/1 rims since that would only be 2” wider overall. That’s still really narrow.I can make you a custom set but A: they’re going to be high and B: I’d advise against it.

Also, can you explain a little bit more about wheel offset? What offset are the stock wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerzOutlaw350 Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 This should help explain different wheel offsets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
