Who sells trailing arms? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

chevydog66 · 03-23-2009, 11:47 PM

I am undecided on whether to buy some used, repop, or the stronger solid trailing arms. Who sells them, and any pro's or con's?

Classic Perform has some cool looking ones..I still have my stock ones on, for now till I redo the suspension in the near future.

Does anybody have the ECE arms? I've seen the CPP's, but don't hear much about the ECE's.

chevydog66 · 03-24-2009, 10:09 PM

Ram-Man, I have read your thread a while back and your trailing arms look great, but I am not into fabbing my own right now. I am preparing to do a frame swap of my 72 GMC to a 71 Chevy frame, so I have a lot of other work ahead of me. Thanks though.

I have ECE's arms. They are very nice pieces.

coast2coast · 03-25-2009, 05:10 AM

fastom, any chance you could get some pictures of them? I'm not finding them on ECE's website. Where did you buy them, and what sort of price range were they, if you don't mind?

fastom · 03-25-2009, 12:55 PM

I found these two pictures. I paid $400 for mine, Mark at Early Classic knocked a few bucks off for me.

www.earlyclassic.com, go to "Suspension Components" under the catalog tab. First page!

coast2coast · 03-25-2009, 02:05 PM

OK, now I found them. I was clicking on "trailing arms" instead of "suspension components".

Thanks

I have ECE's as well. Very nice arms.

As a matter of fact I have the complete rear setup from them, looks like fasttom's setup above only my truck is not as shiney underneith and i have bags...
