Rear trailing arm question

does anybody know if these will work on our trucks?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nascar-Truck...tWZN6I&vxp=mtr

i found these and they are not a bad price after shipping to my door compared to other vendors and used oem that i have found. from what i understand from the ad, they are 45 inches from the center rear hole to the center of the bushing. I want to use these on my '72 gmc C20. would these fit? also would they need any strengthening to be used on my 3/4 ton? they look to be stronger than factory in my opinion

Interesting. Looks like there are more than one pair floating around. So I guess they are used race truck units.

Very interesting I'd ask the seller for measurements and then cross refference to the factory arms.

None of it is specific to our trucks of course, but the guy from link I listed has all sorts of used NASCAR stuff for sale.

I think they use them on some cars too.
