WTB: 73+ A-arms (CA)

[tomatocity]

I plan on converting my 71 to 73+ A-arms and better bushings for a better ride. Thanks in advance.

Ill be parting a 73 c20 in a few weeks. Let me know if you might be interested in the arms, ill sell them cheaper then a yard would.

Be careful on the C20 arms.

Depending on the GVW class, it could have the 1/2 ton arms w/the rubber bushings or HD 3/4 ton arms that are similar to what he currently has (rubber lined bushings).

Jays68yak and Scoti. My truck has a 71 Chevy frame, if I install the 73+ A-arms do I need to change all or any of the other steering parts at the same time? I am entertaining the idea of installing 2.5" drop spindles and drop springs at the same time.

Scoti I plan on replacing the bushings and ball joints when I install the 73+ A-arms. Are the C10 and C20 arms different other than the possibility of the bushings?

Thanks. Tim

It would be easier to use the later model stuff. The pitman arms are the same so just get 73 & later tie-rods & BJ's. Bolt the drop spindles on using 73 & later brake stuff.

The bushings & how they mount are the main/only difference.

If they will work, definitely I would rather buy from a board member before a yard. I need to know if they will work without putting a hitch in my giddyup. Your thoughts?

I have no idea as Im into the 4x4 world and dont really deal with the 2wd thing. I was going to at once and I am kinda baggin my roommates truck but as far as the lil ins and outs of this swap I dont know. Sounds like you have a few people that have responded and should of answered your questions tho. Let me know and I will set the arms aside for you.
