Question 72 trailing arms on a 65

Can someone verify if trailing arms and shock mounts from 72 c10 are the same as a 65. Thanks in advance

Yes the trailing arms are the same from '63-'72. However the '67-'72 lower shock mounts are different. Although I believe they will work. I prefer the '63-'66 lower shock mounts as they give better support IMO.

I put 71 trailing arms on my 65 and they fit great. The only difference I could find is the location of the parking brake mounting clip is different. New bushings from my 65 fit great.

Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I will proceed to buy the 72 frame. It supposed to have PS box, PB and discs so Captain I will be bugging you at some point for some brackets.

Thanks again
