    Drive/axle/sprocket/hubs

    Ok so I've about had it with the stock carrier eating up my seals and bearings. Most of the problem comes down to the axle locknut coming loose. I have tried just about everything other than just welding the damn nuts to the axle, has anybody got a fix on this problem or should I just bite the...

    Aftermarket a arms

    Hmm, just checked my old blaster spindles. MX ball joints WILL NOT work on the top (pinch bolt side) of the spindle. You would either have to get the heim joints or different spindles to use the MX ball joints.

    Aftermarket a arms

    Don't forget to +3 your hydro lines... If they aren't already.Depending on if asr has gotten new heim joints or not ask for the (MX style ball joints). The heim ball joints are the only parts from asr that have given me any trouble. Everything else has been very good to me. Do you have stock...

    Aftermarket a arms

    OTE="Fast6hand, post: 752087, member: 20092"]So I'm looking at the ASR +3 +1 arms. Other then the obvious that it adds 6 inches, what's the other benefits? Will it help make the ride smoother, or absorbing bumps? I'm also running Works dual rate front shocks. I've been down this road before. If...

    The Tavern - Your Chatter Feed

    Wish I had a banshee. I actually just saw one for the first time in person and raced around with it. They sound intense just idling, when they're at full throttle it sounds like it's going to rip itself apart! I'll be posting what my blaster sounds like in a few days. I hope to hear some other...

    american star a-arm trouble

    Yes yfz 450 spindles work the best. I don't have those on my blaster though, I'm using raptor 660 spindles with the 660 calipers. I'll help anyone out that needs it.

    american star a-arm trouble

    man I'm sorry to hear that. If I were you I would get a set of yfz450 or raptor spindles, you already have yfz450 front shocks so your blaster should already have the added height. Plus you can then convert to hydro brakes for the front. Thats the whole reason I really wanted the asr a-arms...no...

    american star a-arm trouble

    Update time! After I broke all four of my second set of heim joints loose i took the Blasty out for a test ride on some unforgiving terrain. Sure enough they locked right back up. So I went home washed off the blaster and called asr to tell them about the problem. Even after 2 sets they were...

    american star a-arm trouble

    Its not a lack of lubrication its the joints themselves. I always lube and powerwash everything after I'm finished riding. I just don't have very good luck. I did however get 3 of 4 loose with some Kimble Midwest CB penetrating grease. It works better than WD 40 or silicone spray, and yes I've...

    american star a-arm trouble

    WTF... Got a good ride in on the replacement heims, brought the bike in for the night and it happened again. 2 defective sets in a row. I can't even think straight anymore. All I want to do is ride but nothing is going right. I think it's time to get drunk and try not to think about it.

    So I called about my tight steering problem and couldn't be happier! Asr said they would send me a new set of heims, can't wait to ride at 100%! I will be returning to them in the future for upgrades to the blaster for sure. Great customer service and great parts.
