DSE Rear Speed Kit 1 - 2in Drop (041631DS) - 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Upgrade the rear suspension and stance of your first-generation F-Body with the Detroit Speed Rear Speed Kit 1. Designed for 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications, 041631DS combines an increased 175 lb/in spring rate with a 2-inch drop from factory ride height. The result is improved rear suspension control and a lower, more aggressive stance while retaining the proven simplicity of a leaf spring suspension.
Detroit Speed engineers its rear leaf spring systems to work with its front suspension packages, making 041631DS a strong foundation for a balanced street or pro-touring build. The springs feature a 5-inch free-length arc height and 6-1/4-inch total spring height, while non-adjustable rear shocks provide straightforward damping without requiring manual tuning. This kit is designed for a stock rear axle and requires Detroit Speed P/N 041101DS Mono-to-Multi-Leaf Conversion Kit.
