Re: "Midnight Rider" 1970 C10 SWB Fleetside

Trying to get the rear end housing installed and I have run into a problem right off the bat. I never gave any thought to the 3/4 ton trailing arms that I'm using being different enough that it would affect the trac bar mount fitment. The trac bar setup I am using is a CPP CP32021B. As I mentioned before, the 3/4 ton trailing arms have reinforcement plates on top and bottom. The trac bar mount that comes with this kit does not account for the extra thickness at the trailing arm. Also, the 3/4 trailing arm has these fancy tabs on the sides where the mount needs to go. Looks like some modifications will be needed.






1/2 ton trailing arm, no tabs




3/4 ton trailing arm, with tabs
