Made the switch from leaf to coil overs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I finally removed my leaf springs and flip kit from my 72 c10. I installed a pair of tin works fabrication trailing arms with Johnny joints along with the QA1 coil over and pan hard kit. The difference is night and day and wished I had done this sooner.

How much noise or vibration do you get from the Johnny Joints?

I have probably 100 miles on this set up in town and hit the interstate absolutely no vibration or noise. The Johnny joint does have a grease fitting.

Congratulations on the nice job.
