DSE Coil Springs - Stock Height - Front (031114PDS) - 1968-1972 GM A-Body BBC
Upgrade the front suspension of your big block GM A-Body without changing its factory ride height with the Detroit Speed 031114PDS Front Coil Springs. Designed for compatible 1968-1972 A-Body applications with a Big Block Chevrolet engine combination, these performance-oriented springs replace the soft characteristics of factory coils with a more controlled 650 lb/in spring rate. The result is improved ride and handling response while maintaining a stock-height stance, making them an excellent choice for a performance build that does not need a lowered front end.
The 031114PDS springs feature a 14.375-inch free length and are designed around Detroit Speed Lower Control Arms as part of DSE's performance suspension system. The 650 lb/in spring rate provides the support and suspension control required for the applicable big block combination while delivering a more performance-focused feel than soft factory springs. Sold as a pair, these springs provide a straightforward front suspension upgrade while retaining stock ride height.
