Re: 81 K30 Flat Bed

The GMT400 series C&C 14bolt will have the rear sway bar which should be easy to find.

Thanks

Re: 81 K30 Flat Bed

I bought this sway bar last summer.

It is 1.75 dia. and will require longer U bolts and a custom mount for the front because 2WD front spring hanger mounts are shorter than 4WD.

I got the air bags as well. They are store bought Firestones with mounts modified to work on the C&C axle. Pretty big to compared to my Firestone 2071s.

I just need to figure out some kind of rubber mount to slide around the bar with a bracket/mount to attach a vertical front sway bar mount like the 3/4-1tons have. See pics.

87 Silverado cab and clip. AC, PW, tilt, solid, straight, no rust. I want to paint it
with new front and rear glass and gaskets. I have new door glass rubber to install as well after the paint. At this rate it could be 2022.
