Three Choices of Everything You'll Need!

Ridetech has made it even easier to "bag" your C1500 Pickup by putting their quality engineered components into three different levels of complete packages for your truck. No matter which one you choose, you will dramatically improve your handling and performance, while getting "down" with attitude, the way you want and your budget allows.

LEVEL 1 package

The LEVEL 1 system offers a more economical solution to gain the advantage of riding on air. It is the perfect choice if you just want to cruise your truck to the shows. And with the upgrade options can be later equipped for any performance level.
The CoolRide front & AirBar rear systems consist of an airspring, a shock absorber, and all of the necessary mounting brackets and hardware. The front system is very simple to install with the airspring and new shock absorber replacing the old coil-spring and shock on the factory control arms. CoolRide offers great ride quality and years of reliable service. The rear AirBar is a 4-link rear suspension that replaces the leaf springs. The AirBar directly bolts into the OEM leafspring mounts... no cutting, no fabrication. The 4-link bars offer more precise positioning of the rear axle to eliminate flexing and increase stability through the corners.
The 3-gallon analog compressor kit allows true 4-way independent adjustment with the use of the RidePro valve body. It comes with easy to use analog gauges and electronic switches for accurate control while keeping operation simple and inexpensive.

LEVEL 2 package

First, Master Series Single Adjustable Billet Shocks on the front and Master Series Shocks on the rear that lets you adjust your shocks rebound rate for better ride quality and handling performance. The supplied front shock bracket does not require welding, instead it is simply bolted on to the chassis.
Second, new front tubular StrongArms provide a cleaner appearance and superior strength over the factory front control arms. The front StrongArms have an optimized ball joint angle to ensure no binding during extreme suspension travel.
The last upgrade is to the air system. Level 2 upgrades you to the RidePro e3 electronic controls offer three system air pressure presets to provide accurate adjustments with the touch of just one button on the digital control panel. And a 5-gallon air tank attached to dual compressors provide a quicker rise time.
