JasonB Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Installing my Alba a arms right now and totally overlooked that the package didn't include new tie rod ends (ball joints) when I bought them. I sold my old set up already so now I need to buy all four. Do you guys recommend any certain brand that's reasonably priced? I need the inner and outer tie rid ends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draggins10 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 You bought the a-arms new? Mine came with tie rods and ball joints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonB Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 It came with the ball joints that Connect the hubs to the arms and also new tie rods, but there are no tie rod ball joints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strm Trpr Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 http://www.amstarmanufacturing.com/BansheeParts.html ^^^ or OEM from RMATV. << They have excellent prices and get you your parts quick. You'll need 2 inner and 2 outer tie rod ends and 4 each cotter pins and jamb nuts. Personally I went w/OE Raptor 700 inner and outer tie rod ends and associated hardware. The thread that goes into the tie rod is 12mm rather than Banshee OE at 10mm. When i bought my LT Fireball a-arms Larry suggested using the Raptor 700 rod ends and made tie rods for use with Raptor 700 rod ends..

banshee#527 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 American Star look good. Was thinking about buying a set of the 12mm MX Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 No. Do not buy any American Star. Might look good, but everything I've touched from them squeaks, creaks, crunches, and turns to rust/corrosion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKJK Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 i prefer+run the honda style myself.They are opposite yamaha style,in that the tie rods are solid not hollow with the male threaded ends + the rod-ends are female.You can purchase the complete kit from rocky mountain atv, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
