DSE Front Weight Jack Kit (1982 - 1992 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird) 030331DS
Dial in the stance and front corner weights of your third-generation F-Body with the Detroit Speed Front Weight Jack Kit 030331DS. Designed as a direct replacement for the standard front coil springs on 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models, this system gives you independent front corner height adjustment along with the ability to tune front corner weights. Unlike a traditional coilover conversion, the Detroit Speed weight jack arrangement also provides additional inner tire clearance, making it an excellent solution for performance builds where suspension tuning and wheel and tire packaging both matter.
The 030331DS system uses a threaded jack bolt that can be adjusted from underneath the lower control arm with a 1/2-inch ratchet extension, making height and corner weight changes straightforward. Each jack bolt articulates on an aircraft-grade monoball mounted in a billet aluminum frame cup for smooth, precise movement throughout suspension travel. Detroit Speed pairs the assemblies with custom 950 pounds per inch coil springs and billet spring perches to create a purpose-built front suspension tuning system without requiring cutting or modification for installation.

FAQs
What can be adjusted with the Detroit Speed 030331DS Front Weight Jack Kit?
The system allows each front corner to be adjusted independently for both ride height and corner weight. The threaded jack bolt is accessed from underneath the lower control arm and turned using a 1/2-inch ratchet extension.
Why use the DSE Front Weight Jack Kit instead of a traditional coilover?
In addition to independent front corner height and weight tuning, Detroit Speed designed the 030331DS system to provide more inner tire clearance than a traditional coilover arrangement. This can be particularly useful on performance-oriented third-generation Camaro and Firebird builds where wheel and tire clearance is at a premium.
