Chisholm lower A-arm question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Got a heck of a deal on a set of Chisholm lower arms. Only problem is the ball joints are toast. Anybody know if they use a stock replacement or what ball joint to use?

Thanks in advance, Mike

I know board member "JohnOro" is running a set of Chisolm uppers and lowers on his blazer, maybe if you shoot him a PM he can give you some info. I think this company went out of business and become Western, but I heard that Western is also out of business, but some part of it became CPP. I could be totally wrong on this,...ask JohnOro.

I have old school Chisholm lower a arms on my truck with the lowered pocket and I am almost positive they are factory ball joints

If it were me I would try a local parts house to ensure you get a proper fit.
