Help finding upper control arm bolts. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

All,

As the heading states, I am looking for upper control arm shaft mount bolts for my 66' C10. 2 of mine have rusted at the splines that go through the frame and rotate when trying to make alignment adjustments. Classic Parts has discontinued theirs, which was the source I did know of. Any alternates?

Thanks in advance.

Look up a set for the 73 to 87 trucks. They are a tad longer and work just fine. I installed a set in my 66 when I went to the later model control arms as they need the added length.

I think I saw them on Bill's Truck Shop web site yesterday. Your talking about the ones with the splines on them? They go through the frame?

Thanks for the replies. I found the 73-87's on LMC. A little longer with a hex head.
