I was wondering what would be some good AT inserts for my ARG setup my bindings are FKS 140 L. What kind of skins would work best for the ARG's also ? Thanks

Do you mean binding inserts?
If so, check out Quiverkiller.com

There is a good chance that you will find a shop near you that will mount them for you.

If you have anymore questions, shoot me a PM.

TGR is probably the best resource when it comes to info on bindings inserts, there are a lot of folks over there who have used them and put in their 2 cents.

As far as skins, look into G3's. Black Diamonds aren't bad, but G3's seem to last longer, hook on and hold on more skis better, and often have better grip and glide on the uphill. They are also lighter than BD's. To determine size, you should ideally go with something that is as wide, or wider, than the widest point on your ski so that you can trim them down to fit the ski. You can usually downsize a little bit, but beware because the less skin you have and the more base shows, the less grip you will have.

true, but when you are running the contact patch of an ARG it is pretty safe to say that even a 110mm wide square skin can provide more than enough grip.

as long as you have a reasonably wide wkin and you dont have an inch of base showing on either side of your skin you should be able to get away with running slightly narrower skins which saves $ and weight

just my 2 cents
