Trailing Arm Cross Member
I see that CPP now has a trailing arm cross member. If you look at it, it appears that they have moved the mounting holes for the trailing arms higher in the mount. I assume that this is what they call " correcting the pinion angle in lowered trucks " Is this enough difference from the one from ECE to really have any effect ?

They are basically the same thing (ECE vs. CCP). The trailing arm brackets 'bolt-on' to the crossmember. You simply unbolt them & flip them side to side to relocate the mounting position higher.

Re: Trailing Arm Cross Member
I believe they're welded in place on the CPP unit.

Re: Trailing Arm Cross Member
Yep, they are welded in place on the CPP one. Flipping the mounts screws you over if you want to go lower then 4-5" in the rear. With the higher mounting point the trailing arms hit the frame rails much sooner, not allowing you to go low enough. That's why I will be selling mine!!!
