Product Overview
Lowering the rear of a square-body truck changes the shock angle and can leave a stock-length shock working in the wrong part of its travel. The result may be a bouncy ride, limited travel, or a shock that binds before the suspension reaches its intended stop.
These extenders relocate the lower rear shock mounting point to improve the working angle on a compatible lowered C10 or C15. They are intended for a properly designed drop setup and do not replace the need to check shock length, axle clearance, bump-stop clearance, and driveline geometry.
Key Features & Performance
- Pair corrects both rear shock mounting points
- Designed around lowered square-body pickup suspension
- Can allow use of compatible factory-length rear shocks
- Bolt-on style installation when the truck retains the expected mounts
- Steel construction for suspension service
Common Uses
- Correcting shock angle after a rear lowering or flip kit
- Recovering usable shock travel on a lowered truck
- Replacing bent or poorly fabricated extender brackets
- Completing a C10 or C15 suspension-drop installation
Technical Specifications
- Product Type: Rear shock extender / angle-corrector set
- Placement: Rear
- Quantity: 2 extenders
- Vehicle Layout: 2WD pickup

Installation & Fitment
- Confirm the truck is 2WD and has compatible factory-style rear mounts

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are extenders used on a lowered C10? A: They move the shock mounting point so the shock can work at a more useful angle and travel range.
Q: Will these lower the truck by themselves? A: No. They correct shock placement; a separate suspension kit establishes ride height.
Q: Do these fit a K10 or K15 4WD? A: This listing is for compatible C10/C15-style 2WD pickups.
Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
