trailing arm axle perches..where to get? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I will be fitting the refurbished/narrowed ford 9" unit under my truck hopefully this week. When I talked with the guy at Moser Friday he said it would be back on the truck coming my way in two working days. Anyways where have you guys been getting replacement axle perches for trailing arm susp., I found some through cpp but damn that $45.00 plus freight! I will not pay that much for a piece of steel that's made in china or somewhere for .50 cent. There has to be a better option?

What size axle tubes do you have? I have a set from speedway engineering that where fit for a bigger tube.

Trailing arm mounts for $39.00 is a good deal. Mine are much more than that. I can't make them any cheaper than what I sell them for.
