Bent upper arm on diff

Post by CB0569 »

On my 89 mav lwb dual fuel, i noticed that the upper arm going to the rear diff on the rhs is bent.It has hit the petrol tank when on extension.
When i put in the 6"lift its going to be a problem.
ANY SUGGESTIONS on how to fix this other than removing the petrol tank?

Get the petrol tank modified. Get it notched where the arm swings so it has clearance at full droop.

i have a custom, stronger, curved arm installed. it is bent so it clears the tank, even at full droop.
