Re: help with airbag front and back brackets on 69 c10

Yeah im not liking those triangular lower control arm plates honestly. Youll have to drill six holes to mount them and cut off the steer stop and have the holes for the sway bar. In reality all you really should have to do is mount a cup to lower part of airbag and place it in the recessed part of the lca.
I cant tell from the pixs how the holes dont line up. Do they not line up on the upper bracket in the front? ( squarish plate with 20degree bend) what you do is mout the front bag to upper plate first then use the floor jack to lift the lca and line up the bag to the mount holes in the lca plate bolt together and ssecure the lca ball joint
See those cups in the first pic inbetween the airbags? Those are whay i was saying go in the lca recessed part where the coil spring sits
