melted radius arm bushing

I have a 94 F-150 SC 4x4, I have had to replace the right radius arm bushing 3 times in the last 6 years, it melts... anyone else had this problem, how did you fix it?

melted radius arm bushing

I have a 94 F150 XCab, 2WD. I don't have that problem but my right side Radius arm has a metal cup over it. I had a 4" lift installed and I was looking around and noticed the metal cup and asked the dealer..why there was a metal cup on the right side and not the left. I was told to keep the bushings from melting. I guess it's working just fine. I don't remember if there was one prior to the lift or not. good luck to you.

The exhaust pipe is close by on the right side. That is the heat source. No pipe anywhere near on the left.
