The Fabtech K1027 6" Basic Suspension System is engineered specifically for the 2007-2013 GM C1500 pickup without Autoride. This system utilizes advanced crossmember and spindle technology to provide an impressive lift while maintaining factory-like handling characteristics.

Key Features

  • Enhanced ride height allows for the fitment of 35-inch tires.
  • Extended length steering knuckles help maintain near-stock track width and improve turning radius for better maneuverability.
  • Lower control arm crossmembers are reinforced with cross tubes and tubular frame struts, effectively distributing suspension loads.
  • Includes a 1/4-inch thick steel skid plate to protect the front differential from off-road obstacles.
  • Rear lift achieved through a block and add-a-leaf system.

System Variants

The Basic system incorporates a front coilover spacer that utilizes the factory coilover assembly, delivering a ride quality similar to stock. For those seeking more performance, the system is also available in a Performance variant, which replaces the factory coilover with Dirt Logic 2.5 or 4.0 Adjustable Coilover shocks. Rear shock options consist of either Performance shocks or Dirt Logic 2.25 shocks, catering to various driving preferences.

Tire Fitment

Compatible tire sizes include:

  • 35/12.50R17 on 17x8 wheels with 5" backspacing (minor trimming may be required)

  • 325/65R18 on 18x9 wheels with 5" backspacing (minor trimming may be required)
