58 front suspension interchange

[Kris Schmalenberg]

Hello everybody. I need a front upper control arm for my 58. The thread in one hole is stripped. I know that 49-54 chev upper arms are the same. I know of a complete 54 front suspension that the owner doesnt want to split up. Does anybody know what other parts are the same? Are the lower arms the same? Thank you!!

Before you go to a lot of work, have you checked the fit of available oversize upper shafts for your crossmember. If that doesnt work, here the interchange info, Upper and Lower a arm and shafts are the same. The crossmember has a couple of extra holes in the pass car version. The spindle (steering Knuckle) is the same, the support that connects the upper and lower a arms are unique to the Corvette, as is the steering third arm assembly
