Hey guys...
Just curious as to whose is lighter...I like the look of the powderlites..hate the price tag..Love the price of the CBperformance arms but would love to keep the stocker look so my chrome caps can stay...
PowderLites site claims each arm is half the weight..basically both arms weigh
as much as one stocker arm...CBPerformance says they shed 6-7lbs off their arms...
curious if anyone knows the difference or the weight of a stock trailing arm...
cheers

Thanks for the input..I saw a few extra things on those sites...but I'm trying to maintain a somwhat of a "stock" appearance...which is why I like the Powder Lite and CB's Arms... Any other inputs on the weight difference between CB or PL's arms?...
cheers

The weight of our arm is 3.475 pounds....and we heat treat and age the alum after welding. The stock arm weight is 6.230.

do a search. i went with cb when i did my sled as someone had posted in here that their powderlites bent and they would not warrenty them. there was no ski strike involved either from what i remeber. the cb kit is great and looks great too. stands up to trail abuse very well.
CB's arms are top notch, you won't find any better or stronger. Maxdlx

I ran the powderlites and I wouldn't o them again even if someone gave them to me. Especially for trail riding with the stabalizer in service. They bend bad.

And if the previous endorsements were not enough-I was in your same boat about a year ago-went with CB arms for my '02 SRX--I have also had CB do a lot of other custom work on a few older Phazers and an Exciter-they are 1) great people to do business with and 2) have GREAT products-I have their arms, skis, and windage plate on the SRX and their drop brackets on one of the Phazers.
Can't say enough good things about those guys or their stuff!
