Jrx-2 front arm question

Post by Dr1rrrr »

I was wondering how the Andy's Arms compared to the rpm arms and the stock arms strength wise.

strengthwise the Andys and RPM arms are more flexible so they will bend before breaking like the stock ones do for me. I believe the Andys and RPM are about the same flexability but I have read others say that the Andys are stiffer than the RPM.

An odd thing noticed on the Andys arms, 3800 Jrx2 Lightweight Front Arms, they are actually heavier than the stock ones when I weighed them. Not by a lot, but some. So how they got lightweight is beyond me. Guess that made them sound better. Maybe they are lighter than the RPM version.

The Andy's or RPM arms are stiffer than the stock JRX2 arms. Those were quite soft and flexible. It was the Pro-SE arms that were very stiff.
