Can you run Duffs Tubular radius arms with a 5.5"lift?

[Blue71]

I like, and have heard good things about the Ext. Tubular Radius arms from James Duff. Since Duffs highest lifts are only 3.5" I was wondering if I went with a 5.5" lift from Chuck or WH if I could still run the Duff's Extended Tubular Radius arms? Heard WH arms arent that great. I have thought about the WAH too, but wanted info on the Duff's. Seems like they might be to short? Any ideas?

Thanks Much,

I don't think they are too short, I think they have the caster corrected for the 3.5" lift. I think they would work fine on a 5.5 lift with some 7 degree bushings. You might not get as much droop in your front axle as you would with the 3.5 lift, but I think they would work fine. I too was looking into the Duff arms, and they were Way to costley by the time they added shipping, Like a $120.00 to ship to a bussiness address in Michigan. OUCH!!!! I think the total was around $700.00 shipped. That made me reallt think about the other arms out there. I am either going to build my own long arms or wrist my arm. Unless we could work another mass buy on the Duffs arms;D

I bought the Duff arms for my 3.5 in lift and asked them if they could be used with a 5.5 in lift later on. They answered just as broncolove did and said that you would need 7* bushings to keep proper caster.
