Title: Control arm interchange
Post by: jman340 on July 13, 2012, 01:10:46 pm

Hello,
I'm going to be rebuilding the front suspension on my '86 GMC 1500 2wd, and to keep downtime to a minimum, I was going to try and grab some upper/lower control arms from a truck in a yard so I could sandblast and paint before I have new bushings and ball joints put in. What year ranges will work in my truck? I want to make sure that I get the correct ones, and might have trouble locating another 86 in one of the pick and pull yards here locally.

Thanks
John

Anything from 1981-1987 should fit.
