Ridetech 63-72 Chevy Suburban Rear CoolRide Kit

This Ridetech CoolRide kit gives your 1963-1972 Chevrolet C10 Suburban a significant upgrade for the rear suspension. What you get in this package is a complete rear air suspension system designed to replace your stock leaf springs. It includes the air springs themselves, all the necessary mounting brackets to attach them to your chassis and axle, Ridetech's own HQ series shock absorbers tuned for this application, and all the hardware needed for installation. This system allows you to adjust the ride height and stiffness of your rear suspension using compressed air, offering a much more comfortable ride and the ability to lower the vehicle when parked.

The CoolRide system uses a unique air spring design that integrates the air bladder with a rebound bumper, simplifying the setup and ensuring a smooth ride. The included HQ shocks are a step up from basic adjustable shocks, offering a wider range of tuning for both compression and rebound damping. This means you can dial in the ride quality to your preference, whether you're looking for a softer cruising experience or a firmer feel for spirited driving. The brackets are well-built and designed to bolt on where your factory leaf springs used to be, making the installation process more straightforward. This kit is a popular choice for C10 Suburban owners looking to improve ride comfort and achieve that desirable lowered stance.

When installing this kit, you'll need a way to supply and control compressed air for the air springs. This typically involves an air compressor, an air tank, and an air management system, which are sold separately. Taking the time to properly set up your air management will allow you to get the most out of the CoolRide system's adjustability. This rear kit is designed to work seamlessly with your existing front suspension, or it can be paired with other Ridetech suspension components for a complete overhaul.
