This is the front suspension support (torsion bar) on a 49 suburban. I am pretty sure this will work on 49-53 trucks also. Includes all brackets and bolts.

Edit note - This thread was originally in the Truck Parts For Sale forum but has been edited for content to save the technical knowledge and info for fellow Bolters to see and share as it may apply to their trucks. Many thanks to the participants for sharing this info. thumbs_up
