Opinion on extended radius arms. TBP or Solomotorsports

[SDlivin]

Curious as to folks opinion on one or the other. Solo is local to me. If it matters,
Bronco is set up more for crawling then running, but SoCal has plenty opportunity for both. Thanks.

Well. if you are looking at just those 2 vendors, I would say Solo. No contest.

curious why not the duffs arms?

Local is generally a good thing. Shipping is often the biggest issue.

Which Tom's arms are you considering, the rectangular ones (like the All-4-Fun ones of days past) or the newer tubular versions more similar to the Duff/CAGE units? I run CAGE arms on mine and for what you're doing, they're probably what I would choose since they're half the cost of the Solo radius arms. If you think you might do more go-fast stuff, then the added cost of the Solo could be worth it. I haven't seen many Duff/CAGE/TOM tubular arm failures, but they have happened...I'd hate to see something like that fail at speed.

Shipping is definitely a consideration. As for TBP, of their 2 options, was looking at their ext tubular RA, not their boxed style. Anyone out there running the solo arms and can attest?
