Ford Bronco II Radius Arm
The Radius Arm of Ford Bronco II vehicles also known as radius rod or torque arm is a part of its suspension system. Its major role is to control the rotation of the wheel through the axle to the body of the car in question, thus restricting wheel movement and thus improving road handling. The Radius Arm comes in light materials like stamped steel or aluminum to facilitate proper functioning while minimizing on the weight. In the Ford Bronco II, the healthy status of the Radius Arm enhances off road performance and general steadiness of a car. On the other hand, a poorly designed or installed Radius Arm will result in problems such as brake dive, and out of control wheels. This would require routine servicing and replacement of the Radius Arm and it's bushings for safe operation. There are several designs but the basic function of the Radius Arm remains the same for all the Ford Bronco II models, thus, the significance of this part in sustaining the performance of the vehicle should not be underestimated.

Ford Bronco II Radius Arm Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install the radius arm and shock absorber on 2WD Ford Bronco II?A:To remove and install the front suspension components, first raise the front of the vehicle and place jack stands under the frame, then position a jack under the axle. Disconnect the lower end of the Shock Absorber from the lower bracket by removing the bolt and nut. Next, remove the front spring by loosening the axle pivot bolt, then take off the spring lower seat from the radius arm, followed by removing the bolt and nut that attach the radius arm to the axle and front bracket. Remove the nut, rear washer, and insulator from the rear side of the radius arm rear bracket, and then take the radius arm out of the vehicle, also removing the inner insulator and retainer from the radius arm stud. For installation, position the front end of the radius arm to the axle, install the attaching bolt from underneath, and secure the nut finger tight. Place the retainer and inner insulator on the radius arm stud and insert it through the radius arm rear bracket. Install the rear washer, insulator, and nut on the arm stud at the rear side of the arm rear bracket, tightening the nut to 81-120 ft. lbs. Tighten the nut on the radius arm-to-axle bolt to 160-220 ft. lbs. Next, install the spring lower seat and spring insulator on the radius arm, ensuring the hole in the seat aligns with the arm-to-axle bolt, and then install the front spring. For vehicles from 1983-89, connect the lower end of the shock absorber to the lower bracket on the radius arm using the attaching bolt and nut, with the bolt head facing the tire, and tighten the nut to 48-68 ft. lbs. For 1990 vehicles, connect the lower end of the shock absorber to the stud on the radius arm with the retaining nut, torquing it to 40-63 ft. lbs.
