The Ultimate C10 & OBS Front-Drive Solution

Wayne Powell |

You finally found that clean LS pull-out at the salvage yard for your C10 or OBS truck project. You get it home, you're looking at that engine bay, and then reality hits: the factory accessory drive is missing, thrashed, or just plain ugly. 

For a while now, we've offered to separate ways to fix that. You could grab the K10780 High and Tight AC bracket by itself or the K10611 Alternator/Power Steering kit. A lot of guys use the AC bracket on its own to keep their factory truck accessories, but let's be honest - nothing beats a clean, matching look across the whole front of the engine. 

That's why we put together the K10741 Master Kit. It's one box, one part number, and a whole lot of peace of mind. 

Everything but the Kitchen Sink (And We Included the Belt!)

Usually, when you buy individual brackets from us, we tell you to grab a belt at the local parts store because of all the different pulley variations out there. 

Not this time. 

The K10741 is a complete Master Kit and we're controlling every single variable. This kit comes fully loaded with: 

  • A brand-new Sanden Mini AC Compressor (Don't let the size fool you - it's got more than enough kick to keep a pickup cab ice-cold in July)
  • A high-output alternator
  • A matched power steering pump
  • The serpentine belt. That's right, it's in the box. No more guessing games at the parts counter.

Built for Truck People

We designed this specifically for Truck Balancer Spacing. Whether you're running a standard LS truck engine or a 2010-and-later LS3 Camaro engine, this kit is going to line up perfectly. 

While some guys use our gear for all sorts of swaps, we really had the C10 and OBS Chevy trucks in mind for this one. The "High and Tight" mounting style is a lifesaver in these engine bays. it keeps everything tucked in away from the frame rails and steering gear, making your plumbing and wiring a whole lot easier to manage on a Saturday morning. 

Why Go with the Master Kit? 

  1. The Matching Look: The K10780 and K10611 brackets are still available individually if you just need a partial fix. But if you want the driver’s side and passenger side to look like they actually belong together, the K10741 is the way to go.
  2. Salvage Yard Ready: If your donor engine came without accessories - or if the ones it had look like they’ve been at the bottom of a lake - this kit replaces everything in one shot.
  3. American-Made Quality: Just like everything else we do here at Kwik, these are CNC-machined right here in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum. They aren't just strong, they look like jewelry for your engine. 

Let's Get That Truck on the Road

If you’re doing an LS swap into a classic Chevy hauler, don't overcomplicate the front-end drive. We’ve done the math, we’ve tested the belt lengths, and we’ve made sure the A/C is going to blow cold.

The K10741 is the "easy button" for your build. Head over to the shop and check it out here, and let’s get that truck out of the garage and back on the pavement.
