Just checked his website and he's almost got the radius arms done. I wonder if they'll be worth it.

I'll let you know as soon as I get them, which will hopefully be as soon as he finishes them.

Please do a really detailed write-up.

What a silly thought.....

Please excuse my ignorance, but what will these new radius arms do for our trucks? Are the stock radius arms crap? If so, what problems will they lead to? I just want to be watching out if there are inherent problems.

Dodge uses a control arm setup that really doesn't work to well. These new radius arms should work a whole lot better and allow the suspension to travel easier.

I just talked to Don about these radius arms and they WILL be worth it. The kit will actually be cheaper than a set of aftermarket control arms. He's got a lot of plans in the mix for future kits that will probably blow your mind. I'll be getting a set as soon as they're ready. I don't want to sound like I'm advertising for him, but he's doing stuff that nobody else has even thought about. Good for our Dodges, bad for everyone else.

"but he's doing stuff that nobody else has even thought about"

Like what?

t-boe

Well, he's looking at developing a kit that converts the rear into a radius arm setup with coil springs using pneumatic bumpstops so you don't lose any load carrying capacity. It's also suppose give the rear 16" of travel. That'll make for a soft ride. He couldn't tell me too much about a new kit (in development) for the front that is suppose to give the suspension 13" of travel. Pretty neat stuff. I wish I lived closer so I could stop by the shop and check things out.

He needs to get off his backside and finish the dang shackle flip before he starts getting any big ideas about 4 linking the rear.....

t-boe

Yeah, he said he was doing that before he started his other projects.

Shackle flip is for 2nd gens.....they're already flipped on the 3rd gens.

nriver

it will be interesting to see the complete setup

keep us posted

That looks absolutely stupid. Is it a control arm , a new Jacking point, or something you want to get high centered on?

t-boe

You apparently don't know what your looking at . It's a raduis arm. I'm getting a set as soon as I can.


By the way Don, those look absolutely awsome. Really nice welds.
