We have made a big change in rear suspension offerings for the 47-54 1/2T shortbed (wide chassis). We now have in production a trailing arm rear suspension package for these trucks. The wide tapered frame is a natural fit for a trailing arm suspension. These are available with Viking double adjustable coil-overs ($1175), with air ride using an 8000 series Firestone rolling sleeve bag and Nitro shocks ($1175), or as the trailing arm kit only - no shocks or bags, ($745). All kits include a new front crossmember, front trailing arm mounts, trailing arms with adjustable monster ball ends, axle saddles, U-bolts, Panhard rod and mounts and complete hardware pack. Coil-over kits add lower shock mounts and spacers, billit viking double adjustable shocks, springs, upper shock crossmember and hardware. Air bag kits add Firestone 8000 bags, upper bag mounts, upper and lower shock mounts, shocks and hardware.
