Mystery A-arms and Swinger

[dquarton]

Anyone have any ideas who makes these a-arms and swinger? They are off a 2001 400EX. Really nice stuff the wierd thing with the arms is that they are using a shock that is 17 1/4" long, as opposed to the normal 16 1/4". Is there such thing as semi-long travel??

Swinger reminds me of ace fab not sure about the arms.

Where was ace fab located? Santee or El Cajon, CA by chance?

This is good.....maybe the swinger too?

I take it back the swinger is deff roll design.

The arms I dont think so. They have heims that fit onto the frame which ive never seen.

Was hard to see in pics I found but yea your right.

Good parts man they aint cheap!

Take care of those arms bro! Cause unless you got $1000+ sitting around, it'll be hard to get more.

Good luck.

Thanks, any ideas why they use a 17 1/4" shock?? Would they be considered long travel?

[dquarton]

I will post them along with the swinger on ebay tomorrow if anyone is interested.

[xtreme762]

You should put them in the classifieds here too. I'm sure someone will jump on them at the right price.

I have no ideas on the travel. But my guess would be the riders weight and/or build. Maybe even just didn't want full LT suspension. ??

Not to dissapoint or disagree with everyone, but I don't think those arms are Roll Design. They use heims on top and on bottom and bushings at the frame. I think they are some off-brand company or maybe even custom. That would also explain the 17 1/4" length.

They kinda look like the Lonestar DC4 A Arms to me.

I have Roll design a arms on my 400EX an familiar with Roll Design products....not an expert but I would say 100% that neither a arms or swingarm are Roll Design.
