Description:
For the ultimate handling 67-72 C-10 Pickup, nothing beats the Hotchkis Sport Suspension Total Vehicle System. This kit has been rigorously designed and tested on the track, yet is very comfortable for your local cruise in. Every aspect of the C-10 suspension has been re engineered for the maximum performance and is being offered in a complete tuned package. In front we start out with Tubular Upper and Lower Control Arms which extend the wheelbase 1.8" and increase caster alignment up to +9°. The camber curve is improved, and bump steer is corrected with a new center link assembly and heavy duty tie rod sleeves. 4" front sport lowering springs, and a 1 7/16" front sway bar reduce body roll and control the bumps along with the Hotchkis Tuned/Bilstein shocks and shock relocator brackets. The rear of the truck gets an adjustable full length track bar set up, an adjustable anti squat bracket system improving the trucks instant center for maximum traction. 6" rear sport lowering springs and a ¾" blade style sway bar reduce body roll, while shock relocators, and the Hotchkis Tuned Bilstein shocks effectively control suspension dampening. This system is a proven autocross winner and designed for maximum performance improvement in a installer friendly kit. PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA

Q: Is there any difference between the way cars and trucks are lowered? And what all is included with a lowering kit?
A: Most modern cars are lowered differently from trucks because the suspension needed to support them is different. In terms of truck suspension, not every truck is built the same, and so full lowering kits are comprised differently depending on the truck. The key thing to consider is not always the components of the lowering kit, but simply the drop the lowering kit achieves. Additionally, it is important to determine if you want shocks or not with your kit since some full kits come with shocks, and some come without. Shocks don't play any role in the actual lowering of your truck; they simply ensure that once lowered, your truck maintains or improves ride quality.
Q: Is it necessary to buy shocks if you buy a lowering kit? Do lowering kits include shocks?
A: Lowering shocks are strongly recommended when lowering a truck because factory shocks are built to be optimal for factory ride height. Using factory shocks for a lowered truck puts does a lot of wear and tear on your shocks, skews your suspension geometry, and worsens ride quality. Please check the descriptions for what is included.
Q: What is a lowering kit? Why buy a lowering kit?
A: Lowering kits provide everything you need to lower your vehicle. Lowering your truck gives it a distinct, sleek look, and is one of the best ways to modify your truck if you're looking to give it a custom look. Lowering kits are available for a variety of different drop levels, from a subtle 1" drop of the front and rear, to an aggressive 7" drop to slam your truck. Each kit is specially designed and custom tailored to each vehicle. You can expect to not only lower your truck, but to also improve the ride quality of your truck. If you're looking for a no-hassle way to lower your truck without the complication entailed with buying multiple parts, a complete lowering kit is your best bet.
