came across these at the local yard for $41 and just curious if anyone know who makes them? Either way I dont care, I'm gone use them regardless and have plans to box them in for added strength.

heres the 3/8th plate i cut to be welded in this weekend. Also will i need to get an alignment after install? My tires are crap already and I wouldn't want to further wear them to nothing as they need to last a lil longer.

They are either Superlifts old style or Skyjackers 1st gen radius arms.

3/8" is pretty thick, is that just what you have off hand?
 
Those are Superlift arms.

The backside is not where those arms are weak, it's the mounting ears for the axle that like to break off. Grind off those worthless diamond-shape pieces welded to the ears and then double-plate them up with another piece of 3/16" flat steel plate shaped to fit (making the ears themselves 3/8" thick).

I got ahead of myself. its 3/16 plate that i've had laying around for some time. good to know that about the ears, i was toying with strengthing them aswell and now its a definate. Thanx!
 
Yep, superlift. I got them, the previous owner broke the tabs and re-welded them, haven't had a problem, but I'm not hard on them either.
