Slope of the control arms for C10
I'm upgrading my suspension using 73 - 87 C10 control arms.
1) Does anyone happen to know the factory spec for slope from ball joint to pivot axis for the upper control arms from a 73 - 87 C10? 2) How is the slope measured? 2) I have read that the lower control arms are ideally horizontal. Is that correct? Thanks |

If you are going for a lowered "Pro Touring" type build I suggest reading the "make it handle" thread in the suspension section.

Suspension height is documented as "B" or "Z" heights and is a measurement from a specific point on the frame to the bump stop. K

Thanks for your help.
Does anyone happen to have the bump stop heights Keith described? Thanks |
