Yes it is possible. I saw a guy build a 4 link with heim joins to replace his radius arm. It looked and worked good. on a 88 ranger

extra cab long bed on hydros, the cab tilt's

ive seen it where the new radius arm has a bushing rod end where it bolts to the frame, but it was still solid mount to the ibeam

All that needs to be done is 2 bolts that go on the frame to one end of the link bar and some tabs on top and on the bottom of the I beam to mount the other end of the link bar. you will need to space out the link bars 1/2 to 1 inch just so that they don't rub on your frame.
