Features of the C10 Rear StrongArm System
- The front trailing arm crossmember is designed to allow the exhaust to be run through it rather than under it providing additional ground clearance.
- The panhard bar mount has been relocated to optimize the bar length and angle for the lowered height. This helps keep the rearend centered in the truck and lowers the roll center to mimize body roll. We use R-Joints on both ends of the bar.
- The C-notches are included with the kit and FIT the frame rail.
- With the Ridetech StrongArm system, the driveline angles have been optimized for the lowered height.
- The StrongArm system includes new trailing arms for the guys with trailing arms that have rusted out. They include R-Joints at the front attachment.
- The panhard is adjustable so you can optimize your tire clearance at the new lowered height.
- Designed for use with Shockwaves or CoilOvers.
