Product Description

The Tuff Country 20872 Radius Arm Drop Brackets provide a targeted solution for 1980-96 Ford F-150 and Bronco 4WD trucks when the front suspension has been lifted approximately 2" using radius-arm/front I-beam setups. When a lift is applied without proper bracket or pivot adjustment, axle geometry and steering angles can be adversely affected - leading to alignment issues, tire wear, or degraded handling. This bracket kit repositions the pivot mounts to correct geometry and maintain proper articulation under load.

Installation is straightforward for technically proficient installers: the kit bolts into the factory radius-arm pivot mounting area and uses included hardware. After installation, an alignment is strongly recommended to restore proper camber and caster. The design allows lifted trucks to retain better handling and longer suspension life, especially when used off-road or under heavier loads.

Important fitment note: Coverage is confirmed for model years 1980 through 1996 inclusive for Ford F-150 and Bronco 4WD vehicles with radius-arm/I-beam front suspension and approximately 2" front lift installed. Fitment for other years, 2WD models, or significantly different lift heights is **unconfirmed** at time of listing. Always verify your vehicle's suspension configuration, radius-arm setup, front axle type and lift height before purchase.
