Re: After market control arms

You can get tubular arms from several companies out there for the C10 trucks. If you are going to run airbags on them then you will want to get air specific arms. If you get them for coils springs, and decide to run airbags on them, then you will need a lower cup to locate the bags. If the arm has a dropped spring pocket, that was designed to lower the truck on coil springs, then you will need to measure the depth of the lower pocket and have some special cups made.

You can try some of the companies such as : Air Ride Technologies, DJM, Early Classic, CPP, Western, Etc.

Good luck with the project.

Re: After market control arms

I have heard nothing but good things about the ART arms. But you'll have to pony up a good amount for them.

Re: After market control arms

i can get a set of ART's for $695 and I've heard nothing but good things about them too. I think chassis tech sells arms for 550 with bags. Im not sure on there service though b/c people say to stay away from them.
