Western Chassis Lowering Kits Explained: How to lower your truck

Testimonials

“I am writing to let you know what a wonderful drop kit you make. I was questioning what kit I needed to buy for my truck and came upon your website. I thought to myself, ‘I will give them a try’ and boy was I impressed! Two of my friends were so impressed that they went and bought the same kit for their trucks. Installation was easy and the kits arrived on time. After seeing the build quality of your kits I would certainly recommend them to anyone.”D.C.

About Western Chassis Inc

Western Chassis was established in 1981 in California’s Central Valley upon development of the first automotive drop spindle. The area was a haven for lowered vehicles, especially lowered trucks. Cutting or heating the vehicle’s springs compromised ride quality to achieve the lowered look.  In order to offer a solution to poor ride issues, Western Chassis Inc. developed the first drop spindle for the 1955-1957 model Chevrolet passenger cars. This was quickly followed by the first drop spindle for the C-10 Chevrolet Pickup (1970-1987). Western Chassis’ innovation fixed the harsh ride and created the industry known today as “Sport Trucks.” The drop spindle made it possible for even the most comfort-demanding driver to enjoy the sleek new look.  Since its inception, Western Chassis Inc. has been manufacturing high-quality, American made products for the Sport Truck enthusiast. Located in Carlsbad, California, Western Chassis continues to provide the Sport Truck enthusiast with a large variety of Sport Truck applications for vehicle models from 1960 through present day trucks and SUV’s.  A recent move to a modern facility, an increase in staff, along with expansion of its product line and higher stock levels, position Western Chassis to offer customers the best Sport Truck products and service available.
