How did you "shear off" the radius arm, run over a Prius or something? I seriously doubt the 2wd 250 one will fit.

haha na but i did climb up on a '08 G5 the other day sont ask and i have been abusing it in the mud a little bit lately... but it broke about an inch for the bushing the metal was really thin... i only ever broke 1 before and it was on a truck that i got after a kid rolled it 2 use for off roading... i was going down a logging trail and there was a tree about 20in in diameter laying a cross the trail so i jumped it, snapped on the bottom where that big opening is but i was surprised when it happened today i never seen it do that before.... hmmm... but ya i doubt that it will work but i wasn't sure thats all i got so i figured i would ask... i refuse 2 pay probably $150 from ford for a new 1 so ill either try 2 find 1 in the junkyard or put 1 of my lifts on....

Why not get one from a junkyard and weld it up? box it and gusset it? The desert guys do it in the stock class and they take a beating. Just my 2 cents

Talking about the desert racers, like score, mdr, bitd, snore, etc.... Its not an east coast thing i guess....Anyways their are classes that require stock length beams and radius arms and they build them up pretty bullet proof.
