Default Roadster Shop REVO C10 build

Here is a quick project that we have been working on to debut our new bolt on REVO IFS and 4-Bar rear for the 1960-87 C10's. While our complete chassis has been very popular for the C10's, there is certainly a large group of guys looking to do the bolt-on approach. Being C10 fans and very familiar with the trucks, we set out to design a bolt on IFS crossmember and 4-bar rear that can fix a lot of the short comings of the stock suspension. The goal was to develope a package that the average guy could bolt on with basic tools over the weekend and see some huge changes in ride quality, performance, safety, and stance. We used our REVO IFS geometry and components as the starting point and designed a C10 specific crossmember that will bolt in to the factory frame rails once the factory crossmember is removed. On the rear, we wanted to stay with the easy bolt on theme and keep the fabrication to a minimum. (no bed floor modification) There is a C-notch required to the rear rails, but everything else will bolt on.

To start, we wanted as original of a truck as possible. I found an incredible 69 short bed on ebay and snatched it up. This is one of the very few times when a car/truck was better in person than in the pictures. This thing is nice! The perfect patina and only a dime sized spot of rust in the back of the cab.
