Detroit Speed Delrin Front Leaf Spring Bushing Kit (041224DS) - 1967-1981 Camaro / Firebird / 1968-1974 Nova
Take unwanted compliance out of your leaf spring suspension with the Detroit Speed Delrin Front Leaf Spring Bushing Kit 041224DS. Designed for performance-focused leaf spring applications, this kit replaces the front leaf spring bushings with a more precise Delrin-based setup that reduces bushing deflection. Less compliance helps the rear suspension respond more directly to chassis and suspension loads, making this an excellent upgrade for enthusiasts looking to sharpen the performance of a street, Pro-Touring, autocross, or track-oriented build.
Detroit Speed also designed these front bushings to offset the leaf springs inboard, creating additional wheel and tire clearance compared with stock bushings. The complete front bushing kit includes aluminum front bushings, Delrin sleeve bushings, Delrin thrust bushings, leaf spring crush tubes, and a flush Zerk fitting nozzle. It is a focused upgrade for builders who want improved suspension control and additional tire clearance without replacing components that are not needed.

FAQs
What does the Detroit Speed 041224DS Delrin Front Leaf Spring Bushing Kit do?
The kit reduces front leaf spring bushing compliance for more precise suspension response while also moving the leaf springs inboard to provide additional wheel and tire clearance.
Why use Delrin bushings in a performance leaf spring suspension?
Detroit Speed uses Delrin to reduce the compliance found in more flexible bushing designs. Reducing that movement allows the leaf spring suspension to react more directly instead of losing motion through bushing deflection.
