Best CHASSIS For Your C10 Truck

Your Best Bet for the Ultimate in Handling and Performance

For truck owners looking to lay frame with a complete air-ride system or blow through a track course with a coilover setup, there are ways to do that with the existing factory frame, of course. With full blow-apart projects, however, running with an all-new frame could be a more straightforward solution, as it will take all the guesswork out of chopping up the old frame. With everything else about a project truck ending up being restored to like-new condition, why not make the investment into an expertly fabricated chassis as well?

Even though the list of standard equipment offered on all of these full chassis systems is impressive enough, there are always more premium add-on options to select from to better ensure the chassis you select is built specifically to meet your standards. When it comes to the ultimate in ride height, handling, performance and all-around unbeatable radness, nothing quite compares to the craftsmanship that goes into fabricating these chassis packages. Don’t find yourself regretting that you didn’t go all the way with your C10 build—factor in some extra time and extend the budget enough to add something truly game-changing to your truck’s arsenal.
