CATVOS is super tough and pushes front 2" forward. They also use Heim joints which you may or may not like. They are the most expensive but guaranteed forever.

Super ATV pushes front 1.5" forward and uses poly bushings I'm pretty sure. Very affordable too.

High Lifter I don't known much about but they are also 1.5" forward but some people have said they are not adjustable so you can't set the camber.

If I were to buy again, it would be SATV all the way around.

Thanks for the info @joeymt33. Very helpful. I have 28 in tires on the way and might need the extra tire clearance. I can't go up much more because of my toyhauler door height. Why would SATV be your choice now?

Just curious, when we rode with @PioneerPete the other day, did you gash up the side of your rig when we all laid over on on our side on that one rutted out trail?

Just deep scratches. Nothing serious. Got the wheels and the bottom of the front bumper skinned up at Windrock a few weeks ago.

Cool, I was just wondering. I still feel a little bad for not getting the beer cooler out of my truck for the crew that day. Lol you know, I didn't want to take any chances at a new riding place, didn't know if they would say anything.

Say when!

Got a pretty busy schedule between now and the Takeover. Maybe after that. I am ready for some more riding. We really enjoyed that trip to Aetna my.

They are built much stronger than stock and very adequate I think. They may not be as strong as the CATVOS but CATVOS arms would tear the frame before they bent.

CATVOS is about $1200 I think. SATV is half that price.

CATVOS uses Heim joints which are nice but I don't like how they squeaked when I was using them. And I still have them on the front. SATV use a poly bushing with a grease fitting.

SATV has the only rear set that moves the arms back so that's a plus for those guys wanting to run true 30's. my roctanes rubbed the back fender under hard compression but now they don't after switching to SATV.

The reason I wouldn't choose HL is really my lack of experience with them. I've heard they dont have camber adjustment so that would kill them for me.

Thanks again for the info @ joeymt33 l was leaning toward the SATV arms but wasn't sure about the CATVOS arms. Hope to get them on and adjusted before Royal blue in April.

Cool, ill let you know before Friday if I bring the rig. If we do ride, would I be able to keep my trailer and rig at your house? Might be hard to find a parking place downtown. Lol

@Windrock1000 @joeymt33 I put 10/28/14 tires on my 1000-5 with 5-2 offset wheels. Will the SATV forward A arms and Fox shocks work on the front end?
