DSE Rear Coilover Conversion Kit - Single Adjustable Shocks (042432DS) - 2016-Present Chevrolet Camaro
Give your sixth-generation Camaro a more tunable rear suspension with the Detroit Speed Rear Coilover Conversion Kit. Part number 042432DS is a direct bolt-on assembly engineered for 2016-present Chevrolet Camaro applications and completely replaces the factory rear strut assembly. The system combines Detroit Speed/JRi all-aluminum shocks with Detroit Tuned valving, single-adjustable damping, adjustable ride height, and easily changed coilover springs to give performance-minded Camaro owners more control over stance and suspension setup.
Detroit Speed equips 042432DS with 500 pounds per inch coilover springs featuring a 10 inch free length. The kit also includes helper springs and spring dividers for low ride-height configurations. Detroit Speed states that the coilover conversion allows the Camaro to be lowered 1-1/2 inches or more from factory ride height. When lowering the car by that amount, Detroit Speed recommends using the supplied helper springs and spring dividers to help keep the main coilover springs preloaded at full suspension droop. For a drop of 1 inch or less, Detroit Speed states that the helper springs and spring dividers are not necessary.
