Re: 86 C10 Trailing Arm Conversion
Maybe I shouldn't have said pro-touring. My intentions aren't 100% pro touring perhaps. I do not want it extremely low with 18/20 inch rims with a mini tub. I am shooting for a slightly lowered aggressive stance, with a stock body, very good handling with some adjustability, but street-ability and reliability are paramount. I do not want it super low because as we all know east coast roads are a nightmare. I contemplated a 4 link or ladder bars but decided they wouldn't behave how I wanted and would be a little too radical for street use. In the summer the truck is pretty much my daily-driver as weather permits. In addition I like the idea of going retro with the truck. It will eventually be powered by a carbed LS, its has old school corvette rally wheels, it has a th400 out of a 70 malibu wagon, etc. and the old truck arms are just the icing on the cake. Here are pictures of where am I now
