BobBrumby Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I just removed the radius rod in my brumby to replace the buhses to find that it has a slight bend where the flange, that bolts to controll arm, tappers off. This is only just noticable by eye. I thought these things where straight and can be put in either way, so should i put it back in and forget about it or buy another one. If i do put it back in should it be the way it came out or reversed so it can bend back? A quick reply will be appricated as i wont to get it back together today.

88HatchMonster Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 They're supposed to be straight and if it's bent then your control arm is bent as well, so I wouldn't replace the radius rod without replacing the control arm as well. But if it's only a slight bend and the vehicle has been aligned recently and tracks straight then I wouldn't worry about it. Put it back in the way it was and get an alignment done if possible.
