JK LOCK-N-LOADTM REPLACEMENT FOR RADIUS ARM |
||||||||||
| Designed to remove any stresses from bushings and welded brackets, the Lock-n-load lets your suspension move freely without bind when articulation is need. Allowing up to an inch and a half of movement, there is ZERO bound up energy in the suspension keeping forces from damaging bushings and bracketry. Made in the USA. Lock-N-Load exclusively at MetalCloak. | ||||||||||
| "Typical" Radius Arm systems inherently bind causing premature bushing wear and excessive stress on bracketry. The Lock-N-Load solves that problem. The unique design of the Lock-n-Load allows you to "LOCK" the control arm in a static "solid" state for on road safety and road handling or "LOAD" the arm to unleash the capabilities of your radius arm suspension! To lock or load the control arm is easy; it does not require any additional adjustment for length -- turn one way to lock and the other to load - the control arm internals keep the correct length with no fuss! |

| WHAT ARE THE APPLICATIONS FOR THE LOCK-N-LOAD | ||||||||||
 |
The Lock-N-Load is designed to ONLY work the front of a linked radius arm suspension. The Lock-N-Load ONLY replaces the Passenger side upper control arm (your current driver side upper control arm remains in place). The upper control arm must have a joint that connects at the lower control arm and a clevis that connects at the axle end. The Lock-N-Load will currently work on most any radius arm suspension that the passenger side upper arm measures between 16" and 17" from eye to eye. Note: If your radius arm set-up meets these parameters it will work whether you have a JK or a JK or some other custom build (though it has only been designed and tested with the JK in mind). |
