65 C10 crossmember same as C20 crossmember - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anyone know if the C10 and the C20 use the same Crossmember.

I want to run C10 tubular A-Arms on my 1965 C20 .

Anyone know if they will fit?

Thanks

NO.. Lower control arms bolt up differnt on the C20. You will probably need a C10 Xmember. The nice thing about it though is you can use any year up to 87.

You'll have to change the crossmember to a '67-'87 style. I would recommend going with a '73-'87 C10 complete front suspension. Although I have no idea how available those would be over in Hawaii.

Thanks Captainfab by the way thanks for the Power steering Bracket it worked great on my 65

You are correct it's going to be hard to find a Crossmember in Hawaii from a 73 - 87 C10 you got one that you could ship to me?

I'm hunting the few wrecking yards but no luck.
