Looking for options - opinions - advice. TRX250R guys - what do you do when your lower a-arms go bad? Aftermarket replacements are outrageously priced.
Want to keep it stock width for woods riding also. Seems like used OEM on ebay it the only option I have found - and I really don't want used a arms.

Buy new bushing kits,or if the balljoints are bad,400ex arms are bolt ons.

they do bolt on but the bushing area on the 250r frames is a 1/4 inch wider. will have to use a bunch of washers or make a spacer

atctim they do make stock width aftermarket A arms. the ball joints are replacable they are VW bug or ford coruir mini truck tie rod ends depending which brand you purchase.

+2 a arms will only make it 48" wide so that should not be a problem trail riding.

oh buy the way when did you get a trx250r? will have to bring it to Brapps next ride and i'll bring mine. i still have my stock 86 trx250r a arms i'll parts with.
