C10 Suspension Upgrade Time ? QA1 Has What I Need

In this video I take a look at all the QA1 Crossmember kit for the shop truck.
www.qa1.net/
1963-1987 Chevy C10 Tubular Crossmember
This kit has everything to convert your front end to coil-overs and a tubular crossmember with rack-and-pinion steering. Already have QA1 coil-overs and control arms? We also offer kits that adapt your current parts to be used with with the crossmember.
Upgrade your classic Chevy C10 truck to a modern driving feel and performance. This kit has everything to convert your front end to coil-overs and a tubular crossmember with rack-and-pinion steering. Already have QA1 coil-overs and control arms? We also offer kits that adapt your current parts to be used with with the crossmember.
FULL C10 CROSSMEMBER KITS
This is a great way to overhaul your suspension in one go, giving you adjustable ride height to achieve the perfect stance with up to 8” of drop. All while dialing in the ideal ride quality and performance for your application while reducing weight by 140 lbs. over stock.
Rack and Pinion Steering
Powered rack-and-pinion offers quicker steering and a tighter feel. Plus, increase steering angle when fitting larger wheels and tires, and improve geometry for enhanced drivability.
Increased Ground Clearance
The crossmember and control arms make your undercab rails the truck’s lowest point. Adjustable upper shock mounts increase travel for a great ride and performance, even at low ride heights.
Adjustable Shock Valving
Choose from three shock options to achieve your ideal balance of adjustability, ride quality and performance
Single-adjustable shocks make it easy to tune your ride quality in seconds with the twist of a knob.
Double-adjustable shocks offer independent rebound and compression tunability. Great for trucks that will see track time or drivers who really want to dial in ride quality on the street.
MOD Series shocks offer advanced high-speed and low-speed adjustment for maximum tunability. The modular valve packs and force curves are made for top-tier drag racing and pro touring drivers.
Easy, Bolt-In Installation
The crossmember comes powder coated and ready to install. No need to cut or weld your frame. It easily locates the steering rack, and you can choose mounts (sold separately) for common engines.

Thanks for watching and please check out my merchandise store. Lucky’s Garage Merchandise luckys-stuff.myshopify.com

Be prepared to drill a few holes. Rack and pinion requires a 30 inch steering column. I had to do some mods to the steering stabilizer to get my double D shafts to work around my headers and still clear the upper shock mounts. Bit of modification to fit the inner wheel wells will be needed as well. Directions said to start with the middle hole for the shock mount, I should have listened as I felt the top hole was to low. Great kit.

Now that is an unboxing video!!! All the QA1 goodness.

[@nicolelongneckergallery]

Hey Lucky. Can’t wait to watch you install this big upgrade on the shop truck. Been enjoying your channel for quite a while from Houston. Thanks for the entertainment and insight.

[@SimpAl..]

Steve Smith from QA1 was a big help on my build. I had one of those POL P.O.S. rack and pinions , now it's a $1,000 part sitting on a shelf.

[@johnlee8231]

Looks like this will solve your bumpsteer issue finally. Too bad you couldnt get the other setup to work

Cool deal. We talked about this at the quarantine Cruise. Excited to see it come together. With follow up test drive and thoughts.

[@richardchilds54]

I can’t wait to see the install video and how much you like this upgrade.

[@396M21]

🍔🍔Great looking crossmember,LUCKY when I saw the setup you did on the rear I wondered if its possible to use the locating holes just for positioning and then plug weld the rest to cut down on all the bolts for a cleaner install on the front as well?

[@xozindustries7451]

I’m excited to see how it works, I wish you could have done before and after testing from stock to show quantitative improvements

[@toddclark332]

Hey bud hope you have a great weekend bud❤ shop looks huge

[@JoseLopez-uu1hu]

Asome “Lucky” Bad ^ss! Suspensión can’t wait till assemble it 👍👍

[@luckysgarageshow]

Looks like a really nice kit. Can't wait till y'all get er done to see how it works.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thank you!

[@br549200]

Big job

[@bikeguy0]

Love to hear a review of the difference from stock steering vs this kit. I'm installing the full Qa1 kit on the stock crossmember and will maybe upgrade down the road to the kit you just got. Just don't know how much better it actually is for that price. Thx for all the videos on the C10.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Stay tuned!

[@dannyclark6107]

Hey Lucky that looks really cool I'm down in Tasmania Australia and am currently building my own shop truck . Its a 1968 c1o and I've been following your truck and have installed the same Qa1 suspension kit for both front and rear along with the chassis brace and more . I can't wait to see the install for the new cross member and see what difference this makes to the ride height . I have changed my truck from left hand to right hand drive with a Retro Rack installed for steering previously had left hand unisteer rack Cheers Danny

[@terrycole9427]

That should make the shop truck more better

[@jah9791]

Only person I’ve seen to open boxes and not have a knife at hand.

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

While this really cool and all. I wanna know more about the Blue 66 Chevelle in the background.

[@richardortega5756]

Will you be selling your old stuff off the C10?

[@general23cmp]

Do you know if the sway bar hardware and links were part of the crossmember kit, or was that smaller hardware box ordered separately? My front crossmember kit came in today, but it was missing that hardware box you have at 6:30. I’m not sure if the two boxes in it are what I should have or just the one larger box in there. Hopefully that makes sense.

[@general23cmp]

I know the 67s can be a little unique. Does this kit differ from newer ones or need modified more than them? I’m building a 67.

[@PaulGarner-jy4cf]

1973 c10 installed qa1 coil over kit front an rear, have a drivability problem. truck semes to twitch after steering input. using stock crossmember an steering box. Have you experience this? please let me know. thanks
