DSE Rear Speed Kit 1 - 2in Drop - Multi-Leaf (041637DS) - 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Upgrade the stance and rear suspension performance of your second-generation F-Body with the Detroit Speed Rear Speed Kit 1. Designed for 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications, 041637DS combines performance-oriented multi-leaf springs with a 175 lb/in spring rate and a 2-inch drop from factory ride height. The increased spring rate improves rear suspension control while the lowered stance gives your Camaro or Firebird a more aggressive appearance without going as low as the 3-inch drop version.
Detroit Speed engineered this package to work with its front suspension systems for balanced handling and ride quality. The rear leaf springs feature a 5-inch free-length arc height and 6-1/4-inch total spring height, while Koni Classic non-adjustable rear shocks provide matched damping. A heavy-duty shackle kit completes the package, giving enthusiasts a coordinated rear suspension upgrade designed around the stock rear axle.
