Ultimate 5/5 Plus LTD Drop for 1973-1987 Chevy C-10
The DJM2456-5/5+LTD Complete Lowering Plus Kit delivers a full 5" front and 5" rear drop for 1973-1987 Chevy C-10 trucks while upgrading critical suspension components at the same time. This Plus LTD version combines lowered arms, coil springs, upper control arms and a complete rear flip kit with new hardware for a total suspension solution.
Up front, new lower control arms arrive ready to install with ball joints and bushings already installed. To achieve the full 5" front drop, a 2" lowering coil spring is paired with the lowered arms. The components bolt directly into the factory mounting locations with no additional assembly required.
This Plus kit also includes upper control arms, helping dial in alignment while completing the look of your front suspension.
In the rear, a flip kit relocates the axle from beneath the leaf spring to on top of the leaf spring for the full 5" drop. No C-section is required. The LTD version includes new U-bolts and new leaf spring plates, replacing original hardware that may be worn on older trucks.
Shocks are included to properly control suspension movement at the lowered ride height.
