Re: 67 c10 crossmember control arm flip?

The best way to do it is to measure the pinion and drive shaft angels and shim accordingly. I have done a couple and 3 degrees has been about right. Because of the shape of the training arms as you drop the nose on the rear points down and the shims bring it back up. I have 1 1/2" blocks in my 66 and machined the tops instead of adding shims. Speedway carries a wide selection of the shims.
