DSE Front Speed Kit 1 - SBC / LS (031301DS) - 1967-1969 Camaro / Firebird / 1968-1974 Nova
Transform the front suspension of your classic GM with the Detroit Speed 031301DS Front Speed Kit 1. Designed for Small Block Chevrolet and LS-powered 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models along with 1968-1974 Chevrolet Nova applications, this coordinated suspension package brings together proven Detroit Speed components to improve handling, stance, and overall front-end control. Instead of piecing together individual upgrades, Speed Kit 1 gives you a matched bolt-on system engineered to work together on the factory-style front suspension.
The 031301DS package combines Detroit Speed tubular upper and lower control arms, Koni Classic front shocks, 2-inch drop front springs, and a tubular front sway bar into one comprehensive front suspension upgrade. The control arms provide a more performance-focused foundation than the original components, while the lowering springs create a more aggressive Pro-Touring stance. Koni Classic shocks provide modern damping performance, and the tubular front sway bar helps improve cornering stability and body control. For enthusiasts who want a substantial handling upgrade without moving to a complete coilover or replacement subframe system, Speed Kit 1 delivers a well-integrated solution.
