c10/c20 control arms and vin help - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Jers67GMC · 12-13-2011, 06:57 PM

I still havent been able to decode the VIN on my 67 gmc and need to start ordering some suspension parts. Are the c10/c20 control arms the same? Plus if anyone can help out on decoding my truck so I know exactly what I'm working with I'd appreciate it. I think I've checked the majority of the vin decoders i've googled with no luck.

Did you try the decoder in the LMC catalog. PM the VIN to me and I'll try and help. I have a few books at home.

C20 lower control arms are different than the C10 lowers.
(they have a bigger ball joint hole)
The uppers arms (themselves), are the same.
Of course,... the balljoints and spindles are different.

Jers, Try this one. I couldn't find a good vin decoder for the 1967 GMC so I made my own.

Thanks a bunch that did help clear some things up although my numbers dont quite match like yours do. Heres my vin PC1065B

jers, How many digits are in your vin?

bruceman1968 · 12-14-2011, 12:45 PM

Jers, A light bulb just went off. What you got there is the last part of your VIN. Your missing the front part.

P=pontiac
C=1967
1065= build number/sequence number
B=GVW 6001 to 10,000
