NO ME GUSTA THE STYLE OF THEM and i don't care for the size of the arm itself, i have seen, and done the breaking of one set myself, and seen many sets snap/bend and break. They try to sell themselves to use at our local tracks as they are located near us..not for me man,

walsh is def the way to go for the dale's..

I didn't know. I'm not trying to defend their product, but I haven't had any problems out of mine. I hit big stuff to beat that, and still no problems. I guess on about any a-arm, its just a style preference on what you want. I didn't feel like getting sapped for $1K when I purchased my a-arms.

Im not an expert, but I found them to be less than durable. Particularly the upper a arm

I think the are fine for big hits as long as you dont have something go wrong.

I clipped a log in training with the right front wheel, Was not a terribly hard hit, didnt bend a tie rod end or the even dent the rim

But the upper arm collapsed backwards and into my 19" shock, obviously destroying the a arm and the shock.

I seriously doubt a set of housers or JB would have behaved similarly.

Dont get me wrong, I like Brad and wouldnt want to bash, But I would not recommend the product to a friend either.

This is my own experience with those a arms

C'mon J, that wasn't me that had them on backwards!wink.gif They are a pain to set-up like he said, but most of that is fine tune-ability.:usa
