Fixed my "Death Wobble" problem.

I was backing out the driveway the other day & my radius arm broke.Called Superlift & got another, problem fixed, luckily I wasn't doing 65 down the bypass when it broke. Now I'm not saying that's everyone's fix to the problem, but you may want to investigate your X's radius arms for cracks.

Not a big suprise, I have cracked two so far. Now my radius arms have 1/2" steel tabs instead of the stock 1/2". Haven't had a problem in years.

These are the superlift arms, not the stockers, correct?

Correct, the Superlift radius arms have a weak area, which is more of a design flaw than anything else. There are two tabs that fit over the TTB beams that work themselves loose and start to flex, then break or crack at the welds. I don't have a picture of the right end of the radius arms to post, but I have a picture of the rear of my Superlift arms, with the heims that were added because I got tired of replacing the bushings every other trip.

Mine broke where your heims are. Don't know Y I was just backing out of the driveway. It broke just in front of the bushing.
