Need help ASAP! Identify these A-arms.

Headed to buy a 2008 M8 and it apparently needs A-arm bushings. Owner doesnt know much about them. He sent me some pics but they are definitely not factory arms. Anyone able to tell me what these are?

Timbersled possibly

Z Bros made a set that looked like that.

Definitely Timbersled. Good luck getting parts now that Polaris bought them out.

Thanks for the help, i learned today parts are next to impossible to source. Does anyone know if i will be able to make factory bushings work with these arms??

Are they seized or whats wrong with them? Im sure you could remove them and save a bundle if you could replace from Greggs distributors or Acklands, Northern Metallic etc. If not i'd bet that you could find at an agri dealer maybe?

 

[sirkdev]

Fluid film or a rust penetrant might loosen them up if seized up..

Those are special craptacular heim joints.
Best get thread size and phone emf. And ask what he can do for you. https://www.emfrodends.com/
Local manufacture. Best joints in the world.

I would not think that they are that difficult to find we use them all the time for linkages for carbs on nat gas engines and governors etc.

The bushings have completely broke out. Was shooting to have it fixed before weekend but that didnt happen. Going to try the factory bushings but not sure what timbersled may have goin on.

I assume it's the inner bushings and not the outer heim joint. Best bet is to find someone with a lathe and build them. They're some kind of plastic. Doubt you'll find anything stock that fits. I never did. Or look for a used stock AC front end and change out the whole thing. At least you'll be able to get parts after that.
