rubberneck Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I had a question if anyone has used them.....im looking at them on EBAy....but i cant choose from these or the wicked Arms...if anyone has any info ..please let me know..also anyone know the warranty on the wicked..thanx arms?A arms I was in the market for a-arms a couple of months ago, and some posts on here were not very positive concerning those a-arms in your question. I ended up going with the american star units also available on ebay. they are 1" chromoly and guaranteed for life. Some guys on here had some good things to say about them. They look pretty good, but i havent been able to test them as i am still waiting on the swing arm from amstar as well. Something about a problem with their powdercoater or something holding it up. You can get the a-arms for 398 of ebay, or for 100 bucks more you can get the a-arms, new tierod ends, clamps and stainless braided brake lines. that is what i did. Check them out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ASR-Banshee...1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) We used to be an American Star dealer several years ago. We had nothing but problems getting them to warranty thier stuff for our customers. They never told us they wouldn't warranty a part. What they did was say they didn't receive that part we sent back, tell use there was a problem with thier powdercoater or say it was already shipped when it hadn't been. If you'll all remember every retailer in dirt wheels used to sell thier stuff and now no one does. There is probably a good reason for it. If you ask my opinion i'd have to say avoid American Star!

bbcmudtruck Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) I have had nothing but good luck with my full flights I got +2+1. I recently rolled my banshee and tore everything up from front to back. I bent the steering stem, broke the handle bars off, bent the spindle, and also bent the inside of a T-9 wheel. The only damage to the a arms that happened was a bent heim spindle ($15) I even bent the top A-arm bolt. Full Flight has everything you need to replace any part individually or as package deals. I ride mx, horseshoe racing, and trails. I would personally buy another set! I'm not sure why anyone has anything bad to say about them? They are also offering new teflon coated heims. I'm not sure what the difference is gonna be, but thats what I odered to replace mine. http://www.fullflightracing.com/ Edited December 7, 2007 by bbcmudtruck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane man, thats a bummer to hear. So far they have been really cool on the phone everytime I have talked with them. Hopefully I wont ever need to warranty anything, but If i do I hope they wont give me a run around. Interesting they had powdercoater isues back with you. I think I would get a new powdercoater if it has been going on for this long. They told me I should have my swinger 1st of next week. Hope I do, cause I'm running out of time to get bike put back together, adjusted and tested before christmass trip. If I dont get it next week, I might start making a little noise. I ordered 10-30, and it was only supposed to take 2-3 weeks. I got the front a-arms in about 2.5 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
