Upper Control Arm Spacer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

creepdogg · 10-10-2011, 09:46 AM

I need someone's help! I have a 70c10 1/2 ton front end on my build, I am trying to get ahold of the upper washer that sits between the crossmember and the upper control arm cross shaft. Its about 1/2 in thick and is flat on one side but dished in on the other. I have a 72 GMC frame but it has different spacers. I was going to try to order from LMC, but I have no idea if the part in their breakdown is the correct one. And their cust suppt is for crap if you ask me.

These aren't the alignment spacers this is a large washer that sits between the cross member and the alignment spacers.

Hey Chris, here is a pic of the spacer. Going out today. If for any reason this is different than the others let me know and I will send you the other 3 so they will all be the same. Pay it forword means free, and when it's your turn do the same for the next guy.
Good luck on your build.
