I like the wedges with poly bushings, but I dont like welding extensions onto the arms. If you used heims, we could make some tube arms. That would allow the caster to be changed.

Good Progress Carl :xyxthumbs: Did you have another built motor for it already? Have you decided what to do on the arms?

I've heard of this before but what is the reason for the tennis balls inside the coils? Robert and Keith makes some pretty wicked aftermarket radius arms and the rear mount is considerably shorter than the bracket you now have.

Tennis balls in the coils - interesting... does it serve any purpose or just something that Neal did? I did not notice them in Knoxville several years ago when I drooled all over the bronco.
Are those arms already extended? Looks like it may be 2 arms pieced together. What direction are you thinking of? Check out what Keith and I made for his buggy project and JP. We used the stock axle end and sleeved some 1.75" x .250 wall tubing over it, welded the fire out of it, and used a summit machine joint on the frame connection end. We used ballistic fab brackets for the frame end which are a little lower profile than the WH drop.
