Forward arched a-arms

[Tflynn]

I want to request that superatv make forward arched a-arms for the 700. You could own this market as no one else is doing it! You already make them for the ranger, why not the pioneer?

I second the motion

To what benefits would the arched a-arms be? More clearance?

Allow to run larger tires without rubbing the fender.

See the pics below. This is a 30" ITP EVO on a P1000 with no lift. It is very close to the back of the fender where the floor board is. By moving the tire 2" forward, you can reduce the chance of rubbing.

Tires pointed forward


Tires turned

A guy on the facebook page has made them for awhile. He makes the front and rear or just the lower arm arched.

If you use only a lower forward arched arm, the caster will be off. I don't know how much, but it may be noticeable.

More ground clearance and stretched wheelbase. You can fit larger tires without a lift thereby keeping your center of gravity low. And the stretched wheelbase should make it ride a little smoother. Did you notice that at all @joeymt33?

Some lift is required for larger tires. The stock tires almost make contact with stock suspension so larger tires and no lift would probably make contact even with forward arms

I'm not sure if I can tell a difference in the ride.

The main difference I can tell is that I have a lot of squeaks with the Heim joints and I can't use a arm guards.

Do you know who is making them or how to get in touch with him

I see superatv wasted no time making a arms for the 1000 yet the 700 got left out? Weird because they posted pictures of prototypes for the 700 awhile back.

I'm a little peeved at them right now, I don't mind being blown off but being lied to....isn't good.
