Superior Engineering Dropped Radius Arms are generally used on competition trucks where maximum ground clearance is needed, although a trend is growing in Australia to fit these Radius arms into non-competition Vehicles.
NOTE: Due to a change in the chassis width of the 2017 on 76/78/79 series these arms will not fit,
if you have a 2017 on model please refer to the image below to see if your vehicle is suitable for fitment of these arms.
Benefits of Superior Drop Radius Arms
Fig. 1 shows the Superior Arm deflecting only 4.1mm under load with real world load points.
Fig. 2 shows the Competitor's Arm deflecting 24.91mm under the same load points and loads, almost the same as the width of the Arm itself.
Also of note is the Competitor's Arm deflected to a point that may cause metal fatigue over time, which may lead to total failure.
Cast radius arms are more vulnerable to breaking, leaving your vehicle undrivable and you stranded.
In the event of a major crash or major impact Superior Engineering Radius arms may bend but will never crack and fail
Note: Factory bump stops may need to be extended depending on the coils and shock combination used.
Due to the huge variances in different weights of vehicles / heights variances and suspension combinations in
vehicles it is highly recommended to move your suspension in the full range of the
shock absorber compression / rebound travel and also taking into consideration coil bind,
check all areas for clearance issues , if you require more assistance in this talk to one of our sales team for further advice.
