DSE Rear 5.5 Inch Drop Coil Springs (041817PDS) - 1967 - 1972 Chevrolet C10 / GMC C15
Bring your 1967-1972 Chevrolet C10 down to a modern performance-truck stance without giving up the usefulness that makes a classic pickup a truck in the first place. DSE 041817PDS Rear Drop Coil Springs lower the rear approximately 5.5 inches while providing a custom-wound spring designed to improve ride quality without sacrificing the truck's carrying capacity. Built specifically for trucks equipped with the factory truck-arm and rear coil-spring suspension, this pair delivers the substantial drop enthusiasts want while maintaining a suspension setup engineered around the demands of the platform.
Detroit Speed designed 041817PDS as a 100 percent bolt-on upgrade for the factory coil-spring rear suspension. The springs feature a durable black finish and are supplied as a pair with the required mounting bolts. Fitment is especially important with these springs because not every 1967-1972 GM truck used the same rear suspension. They fit Chevrolet C10 models equipped with the factory truck-arm and coil-spring rear suspension and can also be used on certain GMC C15 trucks that were factory equipped with the optional truck-arm and coil-spring configuration.
