Product Details

The QA1 Level 2 Handling Kit with Narrowed 9" Housing is built for the 1988-1998 Chevrolet C1500 RWD.

Transform your 1988-1998 Chevrolet or GMC C1500 OBS truck with a complete QA1 Level 2 Full Vehicle Handling Kit. This front-to-rear system combines tubular front control arms, adjustable coil-overs, QA1's rear suspension system and a narrowed 9-inch housing with 31-spline axles into one matched package. Designed for street-driven OBS trucks, the Level 2 system improves handling, ride quality and suspension control while giving you the adjustability to dial in the stance you want.

Features

  • Upgrade the entire truck: Front and rear suspension components are engineered to work together as one complete handling system.
  • Dial in your stance: Adjustable coil-overs provide up to 4" of front drop with drop spindles, while the rear suspension provides an adjustable 4-7" drop.
  • Fit wider wheels and tires: Narrowed 61" rear housing provides an additional 2" per side for mini-tub applications.
  • Improve handling and control: Tubular front control arms, improved geometry and QA1's rear torque arm suspension provide a more responsive, modern driving experience.
  • Tune your ride: Single-adjustable shocks let you easily adjust ride quality and handling for your driving style.
  • Start with a complete solution: Front suspension, rear suspension, shocks, springs, 9-inch housing and 31-spline axles are packaged together to simplify your build.
