Frame Bracing
Hey guys...
I know there are several threads with suggestions on frame bracing/stiffening on 67-72 C10 to help with handling... Just wonder if some of you could post up what you have actually done? pics included? I have really only seen the one Hotchkis build with the frame cross memebers... would like to research all options Thanks

Re: Frame Bracing
I've just ordered a chassis brace from Porterbuilt, to suit trailing arms.
Quoted around 10 weeks Here are some pics that they sent |

Hey not to be rude or anything but could you ballpark the price for the frame bracing? I have been looking all over the place and just can't seem to find a price. But it looks great!!!!! I am drooling and biting at the bite to get me some porterbuilt they look amazing

Re: Frame Bracing
Can you use stock trailing arms with that piece?

Re: Frame Bracing
Wow, Nice Pictures!
68ls1-What year truck will this fit? I understand that frame bracing/stiffening would help with a race setup, but would you say the flex is noticable in a daily driver? |
