Ridetech 07-16 GM 1500 4WD (w/ OE Cast Steel Arms) StreetGrip Suspension System

If you're looking to improve the handling and ride comfort of your 2007-2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4WD with original cast steel control arms, the Ridetech StreetGrip suspension system is a solid option. This complete package is designed to give your truck a more controlled feel on the road without sacrificing everyday drivability. It's a comprehensive upgrade that addresses the suspension as a whole, aiming to provide a noticeable difference in how your truck corners, brakes, and absorbs bumps.

The StreetGrip system includes front and rear components engineered to work together. Up front, you'll find adjustable coilovers that allow you to fine-tune your truck's stance and spring rate. These coilovers utilize a strong, well-built shock body and a robust spring to manage body roll and improve steering response. In the rear, the system often incorporates upgraded shocks and sometimes even new springs or control arms, depending on the specific application, to balance the front's performance and maintain a comfortable ride. Ridetech focuses on providing a suspension that feels more connected to the road, reducing the floatiness that can sometimes be present in stock trucks, especially as they age.

Installation of the StreetGrip system typically involves replacing your factory suspension components. The coilovers are designed as direct replacements for your stock struts, and the rear components are intended to bolt into the factory mounting locations. This means no welding or major modifications are usually required, making it a more accessible upgrade for many DIYers or a straightforward job for your mechanic. When installing, pay attention to the alignment specifications after the new suspension is in place to ensure optimal performance and tire wear. This system is a popular choice for truck owners who want a significant improvement in their vehicle's on-road manners.
