do i need misalignment spacers at radius arm ???
Ok got 79 f150 with superflex springs and I've extended the radius arms... Ben this way for a while.... I am soon to be putting him joints on the end of my arms.. My question is do I need misalignment spacers ??? I am trying to think how the suspension moves.. I would like to think with the bolt horizontal that I would not need spacers.. Axle goes up and downand hhimgoes around the bolt... BUT if one tire is up and the other is down wwon't the joints be moving at a slight side angle??? Anyone with experience please chime in... The stock setup (bushings) are stopping my flex.. The large washer is hitting the bracket when down trVelj g the axle... Cant be.having that ... Any who thanks for the input
i ain't rite

no, because the people in the suspension section may have a clue as to what he is talking about.
and "everyone left" is not correct.

How long are you going to extend them and what is the application? Severe rock crawling where you try to max out the suspenion at every turn, you probably need them. Straight line mud drags like I do with mine, not so much. They are cheap, and since you will have to fabricate the rear mount anyways, just open it up some to run the misalignment shims.
