1. Unboxing the Hardware
Behind Jason lies a mountain of precision-engineered parts: coilover assemblies, upper and lower control arms, steering linkage, pitman and idler arms, and a high-clearance sway bar. Each component is proudly made in California and powder-coated for durability and style. This kit is designed to bolt directly onto a restored C10 frame—no guesswork required.2. Prepping the Powder-Coated Frame
Before any suspension bits can go on, the frame itself needs to be stripped. Jason shows us where to drill out rivets and remove factory hardware, clearing the way for fresh, modern components. Having the frame powder-coated and painted ahead of time not only ensures corrosion resistance but also gives the truck a rock-solid foundation for its new underpinnings.3. Installing the CPP Pro Touring Coilover Kit
With the frame prepped, Jason tackles the heart of the upgrade:- Upper & Lower Control Arms: CNC-machined for precise geometry, these arms position the coilovers perfectly.
- Coilover Shocks: Adjustable spring preload and ride height let you dial in handling and stance.
- Steering Linkage: Includes new pitman arm, idler arm, and tie-rod ends for crisp steering response.
- High-Clearance Sway Bar: Provides additional roll stiffness without binding during suspension travel.
Jason highlights how everything bolts up using factory mounting points—no extra brackets or custom fab work needed.
4. First Impressions: Day vs. Night of Difference 
“Man, what a difference,” Jason exclaims once the front end is buttoned up. The C10 instantly gains a more aggressive stance, improved cornering capabilities, and a smoother ride. While the video only covers the front suspension, you can already see how transformative this conversion is. Jason closes by teasing Phase 2: tackling the rear suspension next.5.
