1) I don't know whose arms those are if there the same as the eBay arms, if so I say NO.... I destroyed a set of those ball joints in one month (3 weeks actually) with only 2 events....that scared me! if the ball joint is that bad how bad is the steel and welding done by a Chinese kid for 50 cents a day...I worked at a speed shop I know what they cost wholesale and the mark-up

2) Those brakes work excellent, just use a good brake pad..Baer or Hawk

3) those spindles are good also but you need to run at least an 18inch rim, it would be awesome if it were a dropped spindle that would have given the rim more clearance around the arms a 17inch rims inner lip hits the upper ball joint mount


Like the brakes, like the spindles, just skip the arms

hope that helps
