Has anyone been using the BD-Xtreme short spindle and a arm kit on their Proclimb? I just want to know if it is really worth the money

Hdrob should have some miles on his by now, but of the few guys I've sold them to, a few have gotten back to me have been really happy with them. One guy said it felt much better in mixed condition snow, that it felt more consistent. Haven't run them myself yet, so don't have any personal observations aside from them being a much smarter setup, which eliminates the BS upper a arm mount and risking your frame from a hit.

Sorry for not posting earlier, but I think the new arms/spindles work really well. I have some pics I have to get posted for Nate at zbroz, with their exits mounted up. Turned out awesome. Spindles are nice, if you get into a position were you need to get your weight forward, you can go wrong foot forward and put the other out on the spindle. Great for getting sled set on edge while stopped or putsing in bad off-camber terrain. Very, very strong. The way they mount is really strong and braces up the bulkhead also

I only ran mine one weekend, but had the updated zbroz post in my 2012 with the bdx front end...which made the steering stiff and awkward. We believe it was because the updated column didn't work with the bdx spindle due to them being like the updated 13 spindles. i put stock column back in with the bdx front end and await another ride............

So far they've really worked well sidehilling. Track seems to track straighter and doesn't wash out as easy as stock. Front end also doesn't get slammed around as much in the deep, less spindle to bounce off debris.. Glad I bought them!
