which a arms? wickeds or ASR

[87warrior917]

not sure which ones to get. it looks to me the asr's are more of a deal because they come with a arms, tierods, tierod ends, and the needed stainless brake lines. its right at 500. and the wickeds are 450 but only come with the a arms and tie rods...also you can get the asr's in the heim joint instead of ball joints, would that be better than regular ball joints? i really want the +3 wickeds... but might settle for the asr's... which do you guys perfer

not sure as i havent done a-arms myself but there is also Full Flight for another idea for ya. all three are good ones, that much i do know.

I'm a heim end guy, stronger and last longer. They are noisier though. I've also never had any ASR customer service issues. Any company that still makes new product for warrior's. I'm all about! Plus ASR has an actual website, not just a ebay page, and they sell replacement parts. On the flip side, never read anything bad about wicked stuff either, and they will powdercoat to what ever color u want.

Why +3? u know how wide that will make you? Wide is goo but to wide and your clippin **** left and right.

by going a plus 3 it actually only puts you the same width as a stock yfz450, you can also run the yfz tie rods and ends, and comming from someone who has owned both the ASR and Wicked both i prefer the Wicked much more, they dont squeek while you are riding, which how i look at it is if its squeeking then it isn't getting the lube it needs,you can call417-695-2124 and talk to Ti Appleby, i think this is the owner of the company, when i called they didnt have any warrior ones made up at that time because they were running a special, i still had them to my door in 5 days though, to make them and get they powdered in 2 days(because it took 3days to ship) to me means that they do care about my business, and you talk to a real person when you call also, you can order through him or on ebay also

I’m riding with ASR +2… Fully adjustable chamber & caster with heim joints… haven’t experienced any noise from mine.
A Heim joint give better travel and for maintains you have options’…after you wash it spray the joints with WD-40…oil is thinner than water which forces any dirt out. And a cheap mod is to cut a bike tire tube and zip tie one end to the a arm and the other to spindle, cut a hole for the bolt.

thanks guys. im feeling the ASR's. cause the trails around my house are really tight... has anyone had any problems with the tierods and ends that are provided with them? they are only 10mm right?

hmm my quad is 46" with the asrs which is about the same as a yfz and perfect for xc

U also have different backspacing on your front rims.


I upgraded to the heim end tire rods as well. They will never brake, bent maybe, but wont but a ball.
