Superior Engineering Dropped Radius Arms are generally used on competition trucks where maximum ground clearance is needed, although a trend is growing in Australia to fit these Radius arms into non-competition Vehicles.

\ \NOTE: To fit Sway Bar Mounts you will require 85mm sway bar mounts and bushes.
\
If you do not have sway bar mounts or you have 75mm mounts you can purchase the required ones below.\

Benefits of Superior Drop Radius Arms
\ \ \ \- \
- Manufactured from High Tensile Plate \
- High Tensile Bar Bush Eyes \
- Massive 32mm main Beam thickness for maximum strength \
- Rubber Bushes pre-fitted into arms \
- Laser-cut to precise measurement and caster location \
- Authentic Superior Engineering Logo machined into the side of Arms \
- They are manufactured Suitable For various lifts \
- Sandblasted with rust prevention applied \
- Powder Coated for maximum durability and finish \
- High Tensile Plate will not crack unlike Cast Radius Arms \
- Allows vehicle to track correctly on road due to correct caster \
Fig. 1 shows the Superior Arm deflecting only 4.1mm under load with real-world load points.
\
Fig. 2 shows the Competitor's Arm deflecting 24.91mm under the same load points and loads, almost the same as the width of the Arm itself.
\
Also of note is the Competitor's Arm deflected to a point that may cause metal fatigue over time, which may lead to total failure.
Cast radius arms are more vulnerable to breaking, leaving your vehicle undrivable and you stranded.
\ \In the event of a major crash or major impact Superior Engineering Radius arms may bend but will never crack and fail
\ \ \Below is a video of Nissan Patrol GU passing an LT2 Lane Change Test with ease, this test shows the Patrol passing the test loaded to GVM at 110km/h.
\
Proof that Superior Engineering Superflex and Radius Arms can still handle when on-road as well as the added flex off-road.
​Note: Factory bump stops may need to be extended depending on the coils and shock combination used.
\
Due to the huge variances in different weights of vehicles/heights variances and suspension combinations in
\
vehicles it is highly recommended to move your suspension in the full range of the
\
shock absorber compression/rebound travel and also taking into consideration coil bind,
\
check all areas for clearance issues, if you require more assistance in this talk to one of our sales team for further advice
Below is a comparison chart showing different forms of Castor correction and how they compare in Cost, Flex, Handling and Offroad Ability.
