Duff tubular radius arms

[Explore74]

Is anyone running the Duff stage 3 tubular radius arms?<br>I've heard all the Duff bashing in other spring/suspension posts, but these appear to be really quality units. I plan to do my suspension lift this coming spring, and am trying to get a parts list together. Any opinions????

I don't have them but they are great units if you have larger tires since they are designed to still be able to turn.

I have had them for about three months now and wow what a differance. I had a set of extended radius arms before, but every time i turn the wheel it rubbed. Duffs took that away plus gave me an extra 4 inces of droop in the front. For the Price I would not even think twice.

save yourself some $$ and get a BC kit with the axle coupler.

On road they do produce a small amount of vibration but not enough to really notice. My 37'' mtrs make more vibration than the arms. As for handleing, I would put them just a little below an extended arm for road performance. I get a little more lean into the corners than I used to. I dont know if this is because of the arm itself or the fact that I had to relocate my shock mounting to fit the arms.

I have a set, except they are in the living room still. I can't wait to put them on.<br><br>Any installation tips?
