Rear trailer arms
In the process of changing my trailer arms and springs. Took them off today and noticed the brackets welded to the axle that hold the u bolts are rotted and split. Can I buy them, or can a welding shop fabricate them ?

I just looked at the LMC catalog that came today. If you are talking about the piece that is like and upsidedown spring perch and has a hole on either side. I think it is part of the axle. You might find a junk donor axle and get by cheaper than a welding shop. A core should be pretty cheap.

common problem, especially on leaf axles 67-72 also,. all was fixed in 73 with better design of perches.
early classics, etc has the perches, dunno if they would sell them separately or not though. ------------------ Randy- Lincoln, IL randy@ccaonline.com 2177353230 *many GM parts bought, traded, or sold -am parting out: '81 Cutlass Supreme Brougham current fleet: -71 C-10 350/CH465/3.07- basketcase, #1 -90 Cavalier 2.2L sky blue, a driver -84 Z28 5.0L/700R4/3.73 daily driver -84 Firebird/SE 2.8L/T-5/3.73/engine bad, project #2 -82 purple Trans Am, project #3 *Paint is overrated* © RSS Enterprises 2000 |
