To achieve maximum drop on the front of your C10, one option you have is installing a dropped crossmember. (aka "dropmember") A dropmember moves your suspension components up to allow your C10 to fully "lay frame". A factory crossmember will not allow your truck to lay out unless you "Z the frame" or "Pancake the Crossmember" which require extensive fabrication and know-how. A dropmember takes all the guesswork out of it and is a simple bolt-in installation.

GMSS now offers a budget friendly option for the DIY guys. Here are a few things to know about this crossmember:

  • 3" Dropped Air Bag Crossmember
  • Allows you to fully lay frame
  • Adds Rack and Pinion Steering (Sold Separately, We recommend a 79-93 Mustang Rack and Pinion)
  • Uses stock style shaft arms for control arms. (You can use any style control arms, but we recommend Porterbuilt linked here)
  • We recommend Tie Rod Ends from GSI, Choppin Block, or All American Billet)
  • These will work with 7-8" Air Bags (Airslamit, Slam Specialties)
  • Optional Heavy Duty Shock Brackets (We suggest KYB344426 Shocks)
  • Currently a 2-4 Week Lead Time on Dropmembers

The price listed is for the crossmember only. You will need to purchase the additional parts to complete the install:

  • Control Arms
  • Air Bags
  • Rack and Pinion
  • Tie Rods

All the components look top notch, will be completing the suspension in the next month, don't think I will have any issues with the all suspension package.

Do you offer an un welded version for less?

Travis (Simple.C10)

We do not offer an unwelded version of this kit.

The crossmember is narrow track with?

Travis (Simple.C10)

The track width is not narrowed by the crossmember. The track width is narrowed by the control arms you choose. Typically with this crossmember I sell the forward and narrow control arms.
