Give your first-generation F-Body a more aggressive stance and better-controlled rear suspension with the Detroit Speed Rear Speed Kit 1. Designed for 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications, 041632DS combines performance-oriented rear leaf springs with a 3-inch drop from factory ride height.

The kit uses non-adjustable rear shocks and is designed around the stock rear axle, providing a straightforward performance upgrade without requiring shock tuning. Detroit Speed specifies a 5-inch spring free-length arc height and 6-1/4-inch total spring height for 041632DS.
