Re: Recommendations for trailing arms.

Depends how you want to use the truck and do you want to keep it coils or go bags?

Keeping coil springs and possibly down the line going to coil over.

I am obviously going to be a little bias towards the Porterbuilt arms!

However, there are a few things to keep in mind:

Our trailing arms are not compatible with the factory shock location. If you choose to run our arms you will need an upper and lower shock bar which relocates the shock angle and will also be compatible with coil overs if you choose to go that route down the road.

We would recommend a new trac bar that would be compatible with our arms as well.

Also, the trailing arms don't come standard with the e-brake tabs... you will need to request them.

Any other questions you have please feel free to ask.

Nate

Re: Recommendations for trailing arms.

Will stock trailing arms work with porterbuilt frame stiffener?
