looking for upper a-arm - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hello all,
i am looking for a upper control arm (a-arm) for a '72 chevy 2wd pickup. i hope somebody out there has one. i have everything else (shaft) but i don't want to go to the salvage yard to try & find one, & then have to get everything to try & take apart. i don't know what something like that would run?? i am open to trading some part(s) if i have anything that would be comparable in the price range. here are a few things that i have to offer:

1. complete rear brake assy. about 85% new, from the backing plates to the drums and all in between. the drums & all the other parts are about a year old.
2. complete stock gas tank, sending unit and all. the sending unit worked when i took tank out. the tank is in excelent condition along with the hardware.
3. two(2) drivers side inner fenders. in good shape one has rust at the connection to the front.
4. among a few othe items i have a drivers side fender in good shape, has rust at both bottom edges and some surface rust behind trim piece along bottom at back part of fender.

anyways i have been a member for just a short time & i really like this site!!!
if any of you have this item for me please give a note back here on the thread.

thanks alot!!!

Please fill in your profile. I have a couple of older uppers. They are from a 69 and I think they are the same for 67-72. Just the ball joint changed between years. Let me know if your interested. You can have them if you pay the freight. They are in good shape.

Have a few decent '72 arms. I LOVE to trade, or same price as guy above (free) if closer. Can always use an extra fender or inner fender. Let us all know where you are. Don't feel bad, I'm still trying to figure out how to change my PROFILE properly. Take care and let us know, Hot Rod

sorry about that. i am located in arizona (phx) area. i would like to try and stick with a 72 yr. so i know that it will fit.

hotrod: when you say decent shape how good is "decent" ??
i will trade the better inner fender if you will pay for shipping on both items ?

thanks!

I have all 4 shafts in good shape for 72. If you want them email me at lamarbradford@bellsouth.net for some reason pms and other notices like that are not being sent to me.

My advice to you is go for the ones in FL or GA, they will most certainly be better than my PA ones, especially if you are used to AZ parts. I will be your backup if they don't pan out. Take care, Hot Rod
