Anyone in Dallas/ Ft Worth parting a 1/2 ton ? I need control arms - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am looking for a set of 73-87 (73-91 Suburban) front control arms for my project 63 truck.

I need both uppers and lowers. Will buy whole front suspension if necessary, but really just need the arms.

I'm sure these would be waaayyy too heavy to ship, so I need to keep it local. Can buy outright or trade powdercoating work for them.

Would my 77 Suburban have what you need. I have been trying to get enough business to pay for a trip to Texas.

Well, it would, but that's a lot of distance between us for 50-100 dollars worth of parts.

I have a brother in Sugar Land who has a daughter up here in college. I could see when the next vehicle goes between the cities. Or drop it off in DFW for later pickup/transport to you. When are you needing it?

I'm actually in the DFW area, so that's no sweat. I'm looking for some ASAP. I'm neck deep into a new truck buildup and running full steam ahead.

Sorry, looked to quick at your address and did a lookup on Spring, not Springtown. Let me know if you don't find anything. If I don't come up with some other reasons to come to DFW there is always a meeting part way.

Kevin- Check with forum member Scoti. I'll bet he knows where some are at.

What about texassquarebodies...or whatever his SN is?? He should have them...lots of them.

Got an 82 front frame cut off today. Full suspension, power steering box, prop valve, brake lines and sway bar.

I'm going to use all of this on my 63.

Thanks for the replys everyone.
