Afternoon everyone. My question is this. I'm replacing all control arms(boxed for the lowers & 1" sway bar). I just put on my F41 braces today & I'm just wondering how much of a difference they actually make. I know they're not super fancy but do they stiffen up the frame & help the rear end in a big way or is it a small non noticeable difference? I know more current & advanced stuff has come along. Just wondering the true difference they make. Thanks, Kyle
they give support to the lower frame mount seeing they just sit out there. under heavy traction and acceleration the pinion actually tries to walk up the ring gear and rotate up.......this action also tries to shove the lower arms forward and pulls on the upper arms. this pushing motion is what lifts the front end. the lower arm front mounts take alot of stress.........mine are guested as well as a frame brace
Very interesting. Not bad for a couple of steel bars. Thanks guys. I’m a bit excited now that I have them. Kyle
I put a set on last summer, big difference, enough so I now want to upgrade the front sway bar and possibly ad a rear sway bar, I really just cruise around town so I may not do the rear bar.
