I just got mine today. they look well made. I plan on installing them Thursday (day off work). It looks like the new version is a little different from the older version that gets clamped to the leaf springs. I thought I saw a newer set of instructions that show where the new tabs get welded to the spring eye mounts. I will post pictures when done. I also have a road trip this coming weekend so I will get to try them out right away. Thanks Arne. |

Radius Rods are in. So far so good. I installed these just a week after I put a Helwig sway bar in. So I feel like I'm driving a new truck. I will be out on a 500mi road trip this weekend. I'm going from ~Portland to ~Spokane.
Thanks Arne! The parts went in as advertised. The instructions are good. I deviated from them a bit. When I welded the tabs I tapered the edges instead of leaving a 1/8 gap. I also used the thick U-bolt nuts tightened to 55lbs then the lock nuts on top. Those locknuts are biatch to thread on those long U-bolts. Lastly When I tightened the large bushings to 2 7/16th, I measured the width of both bushings and matched them. |

Glad to hear everything worked out well. As far as the lock nuts are concerned, you're not the first to have brought this up. There's two ways to look at this, first; you will never have to worry about the U bolts falling off. Secondly, you can always consider them as an anti theft device haha. Enjoy your new ride, thank you.

I'm interested in the radius rod. I would like to purchase radius rods. How do I purchase? Who do I contact- how can I order these? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just purchased a 2001 Ford Excursion to pull my toy hauler, and am disappointed with the wandering. Rick
