I am posting this on the YFM forum too. Anyway we retired my son's Raptor 80 and sold it. He is now the proud owner of my old Raptor 350. Anyway I ran for the last several years with the front rims flipped for width. I know it created problems with bump steer but I always had the arm strength to manhandle it though things. Well he does not have the arm strength and thanks to the bump steer he tipped it over once and almost did a second time.
Ok so I decide to flip the wheels back to normal position and get some +2 or +3 arms. Just so happened I found a set of 2001 Warrior arms on E-Bay and got them for a better price on a best offer. Now I should know but don't, but I am assuming that these arms will fit the 05 Raptor 350? Full Flight and ASR list them for Warrior/Raptor in the same listings some times but do not break down years. In the OEM parts break down they show to be different part numbers. As near as I can tell the only difference in the uppers is the brake hose mounting tabs. Not sure what the difference in the lowers is. I do have some uppers off a 2002 Warrior I can compare tonight, but got rid off all the lowers. Sold my Warrior last summer so don't have it for comparison sake any more.
Bottom line, does anyone know 100% for sure if these Full Flight 2001 Warrior arms are going to bolt to my 2005 Raptor 350?

Yup they will fit just fine, Sparky is running Raptor arms on his warrior with no issues at all. His are ASR also.

Also invest in a steering damper cause with +2 your still going to get arm pump..The steering damper will stop all of that!

Somehow I don't think my 10 year old will hit it hard enough to worry about arm pump. But yes I am considering putting one on there. The guy I talked to at ASR today said it may make it hard enough for him to steer that his arms will get tired. For now I will just get the arms on and see how it works out.

Good luck man. The arms will be better anyway, stock poop is weak and non serviceable, I hate it.
