Adding an independent rear suspension to your C10 can be one of the coolest mods you can complete on your hauler.

There is no denying the popularity of the C10 truck. For the last several years, Chevrolet’s little hauler has been a huge focus at the SEMA show. But these are trucks, and making them handle with any performance characteristics does require some work. Thankfully, the folks at Heidts Hot Rod And Musclecar Parts have done the work for you.

Whether you are planning to upgrade the front or rear suspension, Heidts has you covered. For the ultimate rear suspension, you can choose the Heidts bolt-in Pro-G IRS. This upgrade features Wilwood Engineering brakes and adjustable, billet coilover shocks. A Currie Enterprises 9-inch rear is available with either a 62- or 65-inch track width. What’s more, the IRS kit works with both a stock frame or Heidts’ frame and can be used on both short- and long-bed applications. Since it is an IRS, you will also have adjustable camber and toe settings

Do you want a true performance suspension for the front of your truck? Look no farther.

Upfront, you can choose to install Heidts’ bolt-in Superide II. It too comes with Wilwood brakes and makes use of Heidts’ 2-inch drop spindle. Adjustable coilover shocks and a sway bar are part of the package. Finally, Heidts tubular upper and lower control arms and a power-assisted steering rack are included

You also have another rear suspension choice in Heidts’ bolt-in four-link. This comes with a 64-inch track width, double-adjustable link tubes made from 1.75-inch DOM, 1-inch rod ends, and an optional fabricated rearend housing. The suspension also allows for adjustable ride height. Rounding out this option, you’ll find an adjustable three-position Panhard bar, billet aluminum shock mounts, built-in driveshaft loop. And billet, adjustable coilover shocks.

If you’re ready to make your C10 handle like it should, isn’t it time you took a look at the offerings from Heidts? Your truck deserves it!
