Ridetech C-10 Street Grip... Should it be next on the list?

[chase@ridetech]

With that being said, I am going to put the Street Grip on my personal 85 C-10 when it becomes available because I don't do any racing with it and I just cruise with it and haul the occasional load of mulch. If I do decide to hit a local autoX or drive spirited it will still handle far superior to a stock suspension.

When I build another "fun" truck that actually has some horsepower I will spend the extra coin and get the coilovers.

Chase I just saw this post and I have a '71 camaro front end on my '57 that is going to be mostly setup as a Prostreet truck.

My question is will the sway bar components fit and work on my camaro type front with QA-1 upper and lower A-arms and coil overs? Looks like a hefty bar! what size and what do you think?

Thanks for your input.

The 70-81 Camaro StreetGrip bar is 1 5/16. I don't foresee any issue with using the other parts you already have but I also have not tested it with that combination of parts in-house. As a result I can't guarantee that it will be a direct fit.

We are in full swing of the C-10 testing process here at Ridetech.

Unfortunately I wont have them available for your container but I will keep you in the loop. I can also get you a quote on shipping direct as soon as we get the final weight of the kit determined.

[invicta455]

heck yes chase iet me know asap i need one for my 70 c10

[invicta455]

could we we get a before and after pic of the truck when done

[chase@ridetech]

Unfortunately we won't have a before pic on this truck because it already had lowering springs on it when it came in.

[invicta455]

Ok

[chase@ridetech]

When we are completed we will provide ride height dimensions so that you can see approximately at what height your truck will sit at.

Very interested. I need to redo the suspension on my truck this winter. Any idea on a ballpark range for cost?
