DSE Front Speed Kit 1 (032086DS) - 1967-1970 Chevrolet C10 / GMC C15 Trucks
Lower your classic GM truck and sharpen its road manners with the Detroit Speed Front Speed Kit 1. Designed specifically for 1967-1970 Chevrolet C10 and GMC C15 2WD trucks, part number 032086DS combines drop springs, performance shocks, forged aluminum drop spindles, forged steel steering arms, ball joints, and upgraded steering components in a 100% bolt-on package. The system lowers the front ride height approximately 4.5 inches from stock, delivering the aggressive stance enthusiasts want while upgrading key suspension components for improved handling and ride quality.
The 4.5-inch overall drop is achieved by combining 2-inch drop coil springs with 2.5-inch drop spindle assemblies. Detroit Speed uses Made-in-the-USA forged aluminum uprights with forged steel steering arms for strength and durability. Modern GMT800-style truck hub-pack wheel bearings eliminate the need to pack conventional front wheel bearings and provide dual 5 x 5-inch and 5 x 4.75-inch wheel bolt patterns. The hub assemblies are engineered around 1999-2006 GMT800 Silverado brake architecture, allowing the appropriate OE-style brake components or compatible aftermarket brake options. This 1967-1970-specific package also includes upper and lower ball joints, outer tie rod ends, and billet steel tubular tie rod adjusters, making it a well-rounded upgrade for trucks retaining their steering-box configuration.
