69 C20 Control arms
Hello there, new to the forum and definitely new to the rebuilding classic trucks world.
I've just began my full restoration project on my 69 C20 Custom Camper and am having difficulty finding replacement front control arms for my truck. Almost every catalog/website/part store has 1/2 ton factory control arms and some catalogs advertise 3/4 ton for just the years 1971-1972. So my question is does anyone know where the best place is to find these parts? Will the 71-72 arms fit and work correctly? What about 1/2 ton control arms with 3/4 ton ball joints? Thanks |

I used the dorman brand 73-87 ones. They fit perfectly and look great. They are like $65 each on eBay and come with ball joints.

Re: 69 C20 Control arms
Those Dorman control arms look more similar to my old ones than anything else I've seen out there. And very fairly priced. If they fit older C20s, it seems strange that they wouldn't advertise for those years as well.
