I knew my factory arms had wasted bushings, but I had no idea how bad until I removed them. They are totally blown out, you can put the bolt in the hole and tweak the bushings side to side.
The new Trail Tailor arms are fully adjustable and have the Johnny Joint, which is a huge help when the arms are stressing the bushings. The joint allows them to move without “sideways” type stress on either bushing, and they have a grease zerk. Everything is built overkill, they are heavy duty for sure. The lowers are DOM tubing and thick, not only that, the diameter is much larger than the old ones. I am honestly not worried about these bending at all, they look like a part off a Sherman tank.
Once installed, I noticed a tighter drive, not as sloppy when I hit bumps. Noticeable on the highway especially, when driving over bumpy places at 70-80 mph, it was so sloppy before. Now, with the new arms, it’s tight and doesn’t sound as “rattled” but that may actually be placebo. Anyway, I’m excited and very pleased. I do not think they could be built any stronger.
