Price for the arms would be £499 plus vat.  They do have adjustable plates at the ball joints.  Group buy on the arms anyone?

Well no doubt Mike will be on the GB  :laugh:

Are the TT arms alot longer than the standard arms?

I'm guessing the SuperPro arms wont cause the same probs as Mikes TT ones?

from what I've read the superpro arms incorporate their own version of WALK. check out this page from the ozzie golf forum. They sound pretty good.

....Yes I know that SuperPro have their own version of WALK and that it's reportedly very good and possibly better. But I already have WALK fitted and they don't need replacing, hence my question.

The arms only come with their own bushes already fitted.

just had a look at how the box of parts arrives and it seems that the arms and bushes/ALK arrive as seperate parts. Alex I'm not sure if the superpro arm would fit the WALK and then you could sell the superpro ALK? although I've heard the superpro kit is a better piece of kit so maybe selling the WALK is the better option?

this is a pic of what comes in the box

Looking at the picture it looks like the part of the arm going inside the bushes is larger than stock, so i would say no the walk won't fit. If i was superpro i would make my arms specific to my own products, it's common business sense IMO  :smiley:

Over the top mod list ;o)

....What, shiny gloss black instead of the dirty dishwater grey of OEM?

Imagine what that black paintwork is going to look like after it gets stone chipped etc etc.

If the SuperPro 'ALK' consoles fit OEM arms (which we know they do) and the WALK consoles also fit OEM arms (which we know they do), then surely the SuperPro arms will fit the WALK consoles too. The male/female and location points for fixing have to be common to each. Don't they?  :confused:
