Need extended a-arms for 2000 Blaster, help?
- Thread starter blaster750
- Start date
Hard to find them used but there is a member who makes them and does great work. For a great price
Good luck, so is everyone else... Most end up buying new ones (unless they find a deal which gets snapped up QUICKLY)
There are a few options however, you can get a diamond j "widening kit" if you just want it wider. It doesn't help articulation and induces more bumpsteer but it's an option.
Strokedtater modifies stock a-arms by adding 2" in length. He does whole sets at a time. You take your suspension apart and mail it to him and he modifies it. You reinstall when it arrives.
I started making a-arm kits, too. Complete +3" width +1" forward replacement arms. They're more expensive than tater's gig, however. $375 plus shipping for arms, new ball joints, and new tie rods.

I would of said you civic but didnt know if you were in full swing with this yet sorry bro I:I
thanks for all the links guys. i didnt know you could get a widening kit. are the widening kits ok to do some minor jumping and racing with? I used to race minis as a kid but its been a long time as you can tell and i'm completely new to the quad scene.
I wouldn't get the widening kit for jumping and racing. It's only for trail riding and wanting your ride a little wider. It doesn't correct any of the deficencies of the stock suspension and make one of them worse... bump steer.
If you only have a limited amount of funds, stroked tater widens the stock arms. They're an improvment but still have the stock geometry and non-replacable ball joints.
I'm not ever going to be in "full production" because I only anticipate selling a total of like 10 sets. This is NOT a business for me, only some side money and helping my blaster bro's out. I'll do sets as they come floating by, when people request.

The a-arms I make are new from scratch. I order lengths of 4130 alloy aircraft tubing and cut it and shape it to form it to my jig I built.
I include 4 new ball joints, two yamaha stock replacement ball joints (to fit a yamaha grizzly) for the upper joints and two ricky stator aftermarket threaded rod ball joints with the yamaha taper for the lower ball joints.
