Are you wanting part 8 in the picture? if so Hoser has a great thread here somewhere - I can't find it - where he straighted the control arms and welded an angle iron them. What is wrong with yours?

yes part #8 - i have bent mine and straightened it too many times - so i am buying new ones for both sides.

ATV Racing does not list them on their website but I called them and they said they had the stock part - waiting to hear back for confirmation.

they will have stock parts that are take-offs, or even ones with hiems on each end... still will want to "hoserize them by welding a small piece of angle iron on them to deflect rocks etc...

I had the ends cut off mine and a chromolly tube welded over the ends... after 5 years they are still straight as an arrow.... plus they look way better then welding on the angle iron (sorry Hoser). I did the same with the tie rods.

Why you need them, yours damaged or need them for a build. The #8 is front and rear not top and bottom there both the same. Is 8 all you need. I ask because fixing them is easy as DC noted and for a build there other options.

Yo Turbo do not buy any yet. I'm working on a set the does away with the stock parts. It will have hiems at all three points. The upright connection is a fixes joint but will be adjustable and replaceable. This will allow one to roll the upright from stock to back 2. It will take the rear from plus 2 to plus 4 on each side. This way no matter where your ride you can adjust the balance and track width. It will only accept a max 14" travel shock. You can still get the arms and cut if you want. They will allow for a nice 12" travel package. Once I have a set built I will build the jig if you want to borrow it. My welding sucks so you will have to do your own. Now if some one has a damages set of arms they would be a good candidate for hacking. I've logged the I-rod and radius rod lenghts fo the jig I posted. If memory sevres me right the assemblyis only 28 lbs Have to go out and check notes on that. Too many numbers in the head.

Sorry Turbo, it was setting on shelf above the pics. A few more this week and I may get creative or reckless however a person wants to look at it. I sure wish they had blue in the can since it not owned in the US anymore red and white it is.
