1983 GMC C1500 Air Suspension and Kits

Daystar Comfort Ride Suspension systems are truly Driven by Design. Comfort Ride kits are specially designed to work with stock suspension components to keep costs down and quality high. High-density Progressive Polyurethane strut and spring spacers act as isolators to combine moderate amounts of lift without losing the comfortable ride you have come to expect. In torsion bar applications, re-indexed torsion keys allow you to dial-in the desired amount of lift in order to plus-size tire and wheel packages. These front lifts are often combined with Daystar Greaseable Super Shackles, add-a-leafs, or blocks and u-bolts to provide complete front and rear kits. Daystar offers a the most complete line of kits for most of the popular vehicles, including virtually all late-model domestic and import applications Almost all of the lift and leveling kits used on strut applications feature an easy-install design, no disassembly of the strut is required Comfort Ride Kits are the perfect start to achieving that custom look without compromising performance, reliability, or affordability.
