Aftermarket Replacement for ProAction "W" arm?

[VIPERWILLY]

Any advise on aftermarket options?

What about bulletproof repair techniques?

Check w/ Jim on welding it up. Tig welding, textbook style. And w/his reinforcements obviously.

His user name is rx1jim. He had a post in the "pay it forward" section. He would tig the W and reinforce if you'll pay shipping both ways.

check out below for the reason it broke before you just make it stronger.

My original suspension for my 98 SRX had an 03 W arm in it and it seemed to work fine, I thing the factory welded the webbing on is, however, I removes that suspension and put a 01 ZL 800 skid in in because I have a bad back and just couldn't ride it like that any more. I have the old suspension yet and the pro-action manual but only covers 97/98. I never had the chance to test out the replacement suspension because the snow melted as I was drilling the last bolt hole but I think 13.5 inches of travel is better then 8. I may have lost a little top end but at least I can ride it with out having to take percocets. My non-Yamaha has the same suspension swap and it rides like a dream, that one it a 94 wildcat 700EFI. I would look through the links provided by BETHEVIPER(best looking avatar). Yours it already reinforced I think, something isn't right under there. Later......Vic
