12 bolt rear axle truss
Hey guys been a long time coming but I finally got some rear axle trusses made up to sell. I copied a similar one I got from a friend and tweaked it a bit to suit my 12 bolt in my 72 k5. Comes with everything pictured. The axle saddles are fabricated out of 3/16 steel and welded together. Have about 35-40 hours in these things but as far as I know nobody’s remaking them.. I got 11 total rears to sell. They clear a hickey aluminum diff cover as well. $300 plus shipping. Also have fronts made up for Dana 44. 12 of them. They are $250 each plus shipping but if you buy a front and rear combo I’ll knock 25 off the front to help ya with shipping.

Re: 12 bolt rear axle truss
Per my PM i’ll take a rear truss.
For those considering purchasing, I’ve purchased several front trusses from the seller and have been very pleased with the quality.

I believe a front should work on a squarebody Dana 44. I copied these off the first one I made for my big hub k20 72 front axle. Rear a 14FF? I was gonna try making 3 rears for a 14 bolt in the near future. Couple interested in a HO52 rear truss as well myself included.

For 1/2 ton 12 bolt axles. Would have to measure any bolt but I believe they measure for 3” tubes

Re: 12 bolt rear axle truss
Still have a few of these available for 12 bolt rears. Had some interest in some for a 14 bolt so I’m currently working on making them available. Possibly for a Dana 60 front as well. Thanks guys

Re: 12 bolt rear axle truss
Old buford here. I guess i missed your message. Did you make a rear truss for a 14ff? Plus it looks like i could use another ft. truss for a 1980 blazer.
Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks, Charlie. 661-406-3114
