And also... anyone interested in buying Hotchkis parts... check out Summit or Jegs or board vendors...(including Hotchkis) they all sell the parts way cheaper then what they are listed on hotchkis site....
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hss-11390l/overview/ = $1500 and $8 shipping...

The Hotchkis arms should work on later trucks if they bolt up to 67-72's; they just most likely haven't been 'validated' under the later trucks. I've swapped 67-72 arms to a post-73 & swapped post-73 arms to a 67-68 so they'll interchange. But even @ $1500 for 2 lower a-arms, that's still pricy unless there are additional benefits beyond what other mfr's a-arms offer that justify the increase.
