Hey guys, going through a separation and needed to keep my head busy and picked up a 14 m8000 162 that im going to mod into a 141 lightweight backflip toy. SO my homies at cat hooked me up with a bunch of parts and well this sled still has the 38'' skis stance on it.... I had on my old 15 cat a set of zbros 38'' upper control arms and they are discontinued! Does anyone know if cat has a 38'' upper control arm that fits with the 16+ spindles?

Considering other options but will have a limited budget on this build for awhile lol

I am running the Zbroz 38" uppers as well. Sucks they discontinued those if I ever bend one, but I suppose those sleds are 7 years behind technology and they had to stop at some point.

Only other option I know of is Cat had kits like this that have the upper a-arms you're looking for. https://www.countrycat.com/arctic-c...-inch-conversion-kit-black-orange-2013-2015-m Not sure if a dealer could look up the individual part numbers for the upper a-arms for you and see if available from Cat.

Interesting fact.. the new venom/blast is a 38" front end. id be curious to see if they will mount up direct to an ascender or proclimb. do you know if the proclimmb / ascender chassis are the same mounting points?

I dont have the proclimb yet otherwise id compare it to my 18 mountain cat

That's good to know! Blast uses same bulkhead as Proclimb and Ascender so a-arms should bolt up I'd think.
