Re: Finally got those control arm bushings in

rear depends on year , and leaf spring or truck arm/coil spring. if you have an old 6 lugger going to 5 lug you can either buy 5 lug conversion axles or if you have a mid 69 and up truck arm rear you may have the wide rear end which you can swap the axles out of any 71 up 5 lugger into. if you have a leaf spring truck you can just buy a used 12 bolt truck leaf spring rear end and swap it out. the truck arm/ coil spring setup has crooked axle pads that are different than leaf spring axle pads , but you can buy them for less than $50 to mount any rear under there and also you may need to relocate the shock mounts. im talking about 12 bolt rears only 10 bolts may be different
