What the **** is your budget?
Your wanting to go back to radius arms to save 6 feet of material and 2 heim joints? what is that, about a $100 savings? How are you planning on putting the heims on the box tubing?

What ****ing advantage do I get from a Parallel 4 link? There's no use putting the time and money into doing that when it'll end up with the same amount of flex and a weaker setup.
These arms require no bending, just a big ass notch. I'm sick of arguing what i'm doing, i'm going to do this. The guy who built them beats the **** out of his truck and they haven't bent.
If I did a parallel 4 link I would definately need 2" 3/4 wall dom, but since they're doubled up on the radius arms i'm not sure I will. Maybe 1.75 .120 wall.

I don't know what my budget is. I only get paid 7.35 ****ing dollars and hour and getting 7-12 a week, so you can ****ing imagine what my budget is. I'll have whatever I get for the 44 - $200 for the rear. So not much.
Sound Likes it time to find a new job... Plenty of jobs opening this summer better than 7.35...

sounds like you should go leaf springs in the front for simplicity, budget and get you wheeling again in the next decade. TAMOR doesn't have a great track record with Bronco's and the only one that still wheels has leafs in the front
Creighton, you have done stuff with that jeep that would make a goat go "holy ****!"
What is this ****ing voodoo? Just because other people have torn up their broncos doesn't mean that I will.

JK, I know I am not going to convince you, but it has obvioulsy worked pretty well for me and was about as cheap initially as it could get.. Lack of flex has really never been an issue for me. Being enormous and lack of visibility is what brings my suck.

Tommy I am not trying to be rude and I honestly don't think it has anything to do with bronco's but everything to do with complicated expensive projects on a college budget and motivation. It has failed time and time again in this club just don't want to see your truck on jackstands for two years. Good luck man.
Edit: besides there is nothing wrong with leaves! My taco is on leaves and I guarantee you I had a bigger budget then you being out of college with a real job and all but the simplicity and proven ability of leaves sold me. It flexes great, and it never stops me.

To do leaves on this axle would be more work than radius arms. If I had just built them instead of changing my mind 30 times they would already be done.
To do leaves I would have to grind off the r/a mounts (which is alot of grinding), weld on spring perches, buy leaves, weld on shackle brackets and change the shock tabs.
Doing the radius arms involves, building the arms and bolting them to the existing brackets. Coil buckets need to be worked but it's not going to be any less work than leaves.
I have a set of leaves that I set up the bronco up with that I will let go pretty cheap. And if you want I could easily get you a job at heb making $10+
