Hello all;

I know I've posted this same question a while back but I am truly DESPERATE!
I have a cracked radius arm on my 1975 E150 camper. I Cannot find this part anywhere. Wondering if you guys (or gals) know of a place that might stock new or used r. arms.
Also if maybe the later fords (80-90+) use the same arms. Ford has given me all sorts of info on this which conflicts. I'm thinking that they haven't changed the front end much in twenty years so maybe I can use radius arms from a 95 or so.
Any help would be so appreciated as my truck, in great condition is not even movable until I get this damn arm.

BTW it cracked just before the thread at the bushing near the frame.

Thank you.
Richard

More about the truck (BOHEMOTH). 1975 gold, full kitchen, double bed, captain's seats, propain as well as gas heating, bathroom (converted to storage for military Avon inflatable boat).
dual battery system with 120v charger, inline propain tank (yup I can even cross bridges and enter tunnels), cd/mp3/dvd/player. 351 Windsor,3speed, 16 MPG!
Only thing missing is the radius arm!

 

Can I send this to the Van forum once someone here answers you ?
I would think the radius arm should be available from any F150/E150 P/U right thru to the mid 80's.

Btw, Welcome to FTE!

 

Why don'y you weld it ?

 

Yes Mil, post this wherever you like if it might help. Thanks.
Even radius arms from the 80's are difficult to come by it seems.

Mark;
I would be welding the arm at the bushing just before the thread. The diameter at that point is about a half inch. Grind it to the point where it can be welded and you're not left with much.

There's got to be a new one available somewhere.
Thanks.
