1988-1998 GMC C1500 2WD 5"/7" Spindle + Coil Lowering Kit + Shocks
This Trekline package is configured around the GMC C1500 suspension so the front lowering method, rear drop hardware and supporting components work as one setup.
Trekline separates 1988-1991 Standard Cab trucks into a dedicated 1350-series application. This 1300-series listing is for the broader C1500 application and must not be used on a 1988-1991 Standard Cab.
Kit Contents:
- 2-inch front drop spindles (pair)
- 3-inch front lowering coils (pair)
- 6-inch rear axle flip kit
- 1-2 inch adjustable rear drop shackles
- front drop shocks (pair)
- rear drop shocks (pair)
Vehicle Fitment:
- 1988-1998 GMC C1500 2WD
Important Fitment & Installation Notes:
- Cab fitment: does not fit 1988-1991 Standard Cab models; use the dedicated 1350-series Standard Cab listing for those trucks.
- Front and rear drop shocks are included so shock travel is matched more closely to the supplied lowering combination.
- A C-notch is not included with this SKU. Verify axle-to-frame clearance at full compression; a notch may be required or strongly recommended depending on final ride height and use.
- Inspect driveshaft operating angle after lowering. Trucks with a 2-piece driveshaft may need carrier-bearing geometry correction depending on the final setup.
- Measure the truck before ordering. Lowering amounts are referenced from stock OEM ride height, so worn springs or previous suspension changes can affect the measured result.
- Perform a professional alignment after installation and verify wheel/tire clearance, brake-hose routing, bump-stop clearance, shock travel and fastener torque before regular road use.
