Does anyone know of any company other FLM that makes extended control arms for the Savage?

Flextech TI and big bucks. But sweet. Its the only alloy a-arm I would not laugh at a person for using

Bank,

I'd go there in a second, but they're stock length. Or am I wrong?

Your correct Eddie the Flextech ones are correct length and your looking for longer.

I have heard good things about the FLM ones though.

So I added 1/2 offset Max. wheels, and it was a noticable difference. With the .500" longer FLM arms it gives me two inches total, which is a noticable difference over the stock arms, stock wheels. I have a few "Issues" with the FLM arms. Are they really the only company out there that makes extended arms?

As far as I know they are.....

I wish RPM would make a plastic extended arm set.....

Holy the flex tek stuff is expensive. nice though. Why dont you like the FLM arms? Arent the hellfire arms longer and fit?

I like the extra .500" the FLM arms gives me, and the lowers are great, but there are a couple of design issues with the uppers. Will the Hellfire arms fit, and if so, how much longer are they than the stock Savage arms?

The hellfire arms are not a direct fit. They will work with some trimming of the arms and bulkhead brace.

this is true. I love rpm products and am not about to put aluminum arms on the sav. that could be devastating
