I have a set of the James Duff radius arms and I am really excited about putting them on but I have a few questions. I did my lift for the truck but I was wanting someone else to do the radius arms. But when I had a shop quote me they said 6-8 hours for install @ 65$ per hour! Since I have already put a lift on the old mounts will just come off with bolts so what gives?
How long did it take for anyone to perform the switch?
What kind of problems did you encounter?
Are their any special tools that I will need?
Thanks for all the help and I look forward to some good news!

I just did a semi-wrightup on my duff install with some pictures.
It was on the third page in modified explorations.
I have some more pictures if you want me to send them.
My install took about 6 hours with two people on a rustbelt truck! could be alot less if everything goes as planned, but what does?

The only thing I had a problem with was spacing out the new crossmember as it will not fit perfectly!!
I also had to fabricate some bumbstops to keep the shockmount from hitting the rim.
