when i look at my blaster from the front with the handle bars straight my left wheel seems to be slightly slanted, i showed my dad and he said it was probably a bearing in the A-Arm so he picked the front end up and i wiggled the wheel and it had some play in it and the play was where the bearings were, it almost looked like there was something loose. so is it the bearing and if so is it that hard of a fix?
A-Arm Bearings?

i would say its possibly a wheel bearing, there are no bearings in the aarms, just plastic bushings and the thrust covers!
Ok, where exactly is the movement at? There's a lot of places the movement can be coming from. It could be at the pivot where the a-arm meets the frame, it can be in the ball joints, it can be bad wheel bearings, or a combination of those. Nobody can really tell you anything for sure until you figure that out.
Then you just need new bushings. The best way to go is to get one of the kits on ebay like this one:
eBay Motors: 12 ASR Banshee, Blaster, YFZ450 Delron A-Arm Bushings (item 360054980110 end time Jun-01-08 19:33:53 PDT)
The ASR bushings are very good quality and a heck of a lot cheaper than OEM ones or the pivot works kits.
