duff extended radius arm installation

[77bronco_ed]

Any one that has installed these... Do you have the instructions/ dimensions for installing the brackets to the frame.
Need to know the correct dimension for locating. I do not have the instructions, called Duff last week it should be in the mail however I would like to get the brackets welded soon.

Can anyone scan in the installation instructions.


Thanks,

Before I can perform some handiwork I had to use some fancy foot work.
Remember "measure twice weld once".

Does this picture represent CL to CL dimension you are speaking of...
Dimension is not set I just want to make sure we are talking the same language.

Thats where I placed the cage arm brackets I installed. The old radius arm brackets were a pain in the rear to cut off. have fun.

is that your big toe?
You could also probably center the axle end with the coil bucket.

I think that is his big toe in sandals!

Ed -- keep up the good work. I want to see some good progress when I get out there in a couple weeks. ;D

Fancy footwork...
Yes, I had to hold up the bracket to take the pic... At least my toe nail is clean, sort of

here are instructions

1/2 " DESCREPENCY Between comments on the board. Instructions hold more weight. I think there is quite a bit of adjustment on this... Anyone else with instructions that show anything different? I want to take care of this on the weekend.
Thanks,

Yea, I had to cut off the radius arm brackets along with all the shock mounts. So I can use them on mine.. Went through quite a few large cut off wheels.

Had all the Duff parts powder coated red to match my truck a bit better.

I hope I have time to get most of this done next week. I have folks coming over to look at parts and... I have to head out myself to look at parts.
Have a graduation party on Saturday. The weekend is going to be busy and a lot of fun... selling, buying, installing... oh and partying

I received the instructions for the entire kit just before I started to put things on...
Almost there brake lines and shocks to go.

Since I am messing with shocks I have a hydroboost waiting to go on so we are going to take care of that. Also have a new saginaw pump that is going to get installed.

Hard to believe that I can see the light at the end of the tunnel only minor work to get it where I want it.
I have never seen the wish list this short...

Don't ask how many years I have had this thing.

Before lift and after attached..
