DSE Coilover Front Conversion Kit - Single Adjustable Shocks - SBC / LS (1970 - 1981 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird) 030313-SDS
Bring modern suspension control and adjustability to your second-generation F-Body with the Detroit Speed Coilover Front Conversion Kit 030313-SDS. Designed for 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models with Small Block Chevy or LS power, this direct bolt-in system converts the stock front suspension to a modern coilover shock and spring setup. Extensive ride height adjustability gives you the freedom to dial in your car's stance and suspension setup while Detroit Speed engineering delivers the control and ride quality expected from a properly matched performance suspension.
The 030313-SDS package steps up to single adjustable aluminum-body coilover shocks with Detroit Tuned valving. In addition to the features of the base shock, the single adjustable design adds an installed rebound adjustment that can be changed with the simple turn of a knob, giving you greater control over shock response while maintaining excellent street ride quality. The system is based around a 4-inch-stroke shock and uses 575 pounds per inch coil springs. Detroit Speed quality checks and inspects its springs, engraves each with its spring rate for easy identification, and designs them to maintain their height over time.
