DSE Front Coilover Kit - Base Shocks (1993 - 2002 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird) 030340DS
Bring modern coilover adjustability and Detroit Speed suspension engineering to your fourth-generation F-Body with the DSE Front Coilover Kit 030340DS. Designed for 1993-2002 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models, this 100 percent direct bolt-on system replaces the conventional front spring and shock arrangement with aluminum-body JRi coilover shocks featuring Detroit Tuned valving. The package delivers extensive ride height adjustment while maintaining excellent street ride quality, giving you a straightforward way to sharpen the suspension and dial in the stance of your Camaro or Firebird.
The 030340DS base package uses non-adjustable DSE/JRi shocks that deliver the increased dynamic response of JRi's performance shock architecture without requiring manual damping adjustments. The coilover system is optimized around a 1.5-inch drop from stock height and incorporates low-friction shock monoballs to eliminate suspension bind and shock side loading. Purpose-built upper and lower shock mounts simplify shock installation and removal while eliminating the failure-prone factory-style upper shock mount. Detroit Speed also engineered the system so spring changes can be made without removing the front wheels.
