Are these a arms cast iron? cast steel welds quite nicely. cast iron is a beech though. i still wouldn't trust a welded a- arm, unless it was massively oversized.

So what are the possibilities of getting a new A arm made that would allow us to use real shocks?

i think we all just need to put 08 dak shocks on. i hear that they are stiffer. i wonder about the springs though too.
