When to Replace A-Arm Bearings

Replace if you have:
- Clunking noise from front suspension
- Play in upper A-arms
- Binding or stiff suspension movement
- Worn or torn dust seals
- Rough steering feel
- Preventive maintenance

Signs of Worn Bearings

🔊 **Noise:** Clunking or popping from front end
🔧 **Play:** A-arms move side-to-side when lifted
⚙️ **Binding:** Suspension doesn't move smoothly
💧 **Leaking:** Grease around pivot points

Complete Suspension Rebuild

💡 **Pro Tip:** For best results, replace BOTH upper and lower A-arm bearings together. This ensures consistent suspension feel and eliminates all play.

**Full Rebuild Kit:**
- Upper A-arms (this kit)
- Lower A-arms (sold separately)

**Save time:** Do them all at once during off-season!

🔧 Tools: Press, bearing driver, suspension tools

Pro Tip

💡 Replace A-arm bearings during off-season or before big rides. Worn bearings affect handling and can cause premature tire wear. Always grease new bearings during installation.
