1962 Fleetside needing bags - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 62 Fleetside I want to bag. Will the newer A-arms (73-87) bolt on to remove the torsion bars and then just build a plate off the frame or will it require replaceing the front suspension first and build off a 73-87 front suspension? This is a daily driver truck so I aint looking for it to lay frame or a show quality job. I am looking for functionality.

You can remove your torsions and plate the lower a-arm. Use a plate above the bags as well and you're done.

.....except with the switches, compressors, wiring, tank, etc.
