Rear upper control arm/trailing arm differences
Permalink  

Did you know this about your rearend?

1964/65 beaumonts have cam washers on the upper control arms to adjust pinion angle

1967s do not.  fixed with no adjustment.

Interesting,  i never knew that

Did GM decide that pinion angle really did not change enough based on spring hieght to worry about pinion angles getting out of line?

Learned something new again today.

Did you read about it or see it on a car?

Was cleaning out my diff pile today and noticed it

I have 2 64s and 2 67's next to eachother.  Took me awhile to see it

That and the coil spring perches of course.

Thats pretty much the only differences
