DSE Mini-Tub Kit - 2in Drop (041203DS) - 1967 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Give your 1967 Camaro or Firebird the rear tire clearance, lowered stance, and complete suspension package needed for a serious Pro Touring build with the Detroit Speed Mini-Tub Kit. Part number 041203DS combines Detroit Speed Mini-Tubs with a matched 2-inch drop leaf spring and shock package, offset shackles, adjustable spring pads, U-bolts, shock mounting components, bushings, and required installation hardware. Instead of sourcing individual pieces and hoping they work together, this kit provides a coordinated rear Mini-Tub system engineered specifically for the first-year F-Body.
The included 175 lbs/in rear leaf springs provide a 2-inch drop while maintaining the ride and handling characteristics expected from a performance-oriented street suspension. Detroit Speed Mini-Tubs provide 2.75 inches of additional wheelhouse width, while the offset shackles move the leaf springs inward to create the room required for wider rear wheel and tire combinations. The included Mini-Tub shocks, rear upper shock crossmember, lower shock plates, adjustable leaf spring pads, urethane bushings, U-bolts, and mounting hardware complete the package. A narrowed fuel tank is required for installation and is available separately.
