In our quest to build an incredible
400EX with Project Big Red, we were looking to increase the
capabilities of our 400EX but not break the budget. This led
us to meet with Kip Kilburn at American Star
Racing.
American Star Racing manufactures a
complete line of ATV A-Arm kits, with a product that will fit the
recreational rider, the racer and anyone in between. All
A-Arms come with super-strong, precision-machined .188 wall,
4130 chrome moly tie rods - so strong, in fact, they offer a
lifetime structural warranty to the original
purchaser.
There are four lines
of A-Arms offered by American Star, all with grey
powder-coating finish:
Sportsman A-Arm
Kits
Available for the Banshee, Warrior, and Raptor. The
Sportsman A-Arms are constructed of .120 wall mild steel and are
much stronger than stock A-arms. These arms feature adjustable

patented racing heim-style ball joint. Suggested
retail $429.
