Hello!!
Does anyone know the best place to get complete rear assemblies for a 1971 C3 without breaking the bank? I'm beginning a complete restoration and the assemblies were completely rusted thru and were thrown out (not by me, by my brother...I would have kept them for the core exchange at a very minimum...)
Please PM me!
Thanx much!!!

There are a lot of good vendors out there. Corvette Specialties, VB and P. VanSteel, Bairs. Price is a factor but so is service. I would suggest a complete t/a assembly with the e-brakes installed instead of a bare bones arm.

Try Jim Stevens from Stevens Corvette parts. He's out of Wisconsin, but his workmanship and quality and good prices make up for a little extra shipping. He sells his trailing arms through Ebay under Tyler's Parts (I think Tyler is his son). Jim is a heck of a nice guy and he gave me a tremendous deal on some arms and a rear end rebuild a few years back. He warranties his arms for a lifetime and his claim to fame is never having one of his bearing set ups go bad!! 

A number of folks on the site have given him their business and never a complaint!!
You can reach him at 608-365-0911. Tell him Paul from NJ sent you!!
(maybe he'll jack up the prices!!)
