I want to go wide 17" with my rear rims so I'm considering your great sale on the offset t/a assy's. On a standard set I would need to relocate the parking brake bracket to fit wide wheels, do your offset assy's come with this bracket already relocated?

I'm seriously thinking about doing this - I need to check the finances. Which brand poly bushings do you use if I order them with the poly upgrade?

Yes the bracket is relocated on the offsets.

For our stock arms? Our poly bushing are made by a company called Street & Specialty Products. They look exactly like stock bushings except they are poly. They are graphite impregnated as well.

We have our own bushings made for us for our offsets which are graphite impregnated too. We don't use Energy Suspension or Prothane bushings for our t-arms.

98% of the time it's free shipping only but I can offer you 10% off your order. You can only get one or the other.

Darn, And I just found I need a bearing assembly rebuilt... T-Arm is fine (my '69 L46).

What's your latest price on rear bearing assembly rebuild? My last catalog said something like $200 per side to rebuild my unit. I may also need to have my rotor examined and the half-shaft rebuilt/replaced.

Will be calling once I have them removed.

Ted,
It's still the same for the bearing rebuild. We can mic your rotors out when you bring them by to see if they are good or not. If you have a mic a home, the min is 1.215. If it's around 1.220 - 1.225 I would suggest new rotors b/c you'll only be able to get one cut out it and your rotors will be thin.
