Description

Coilover System includes:

  • Tubular .156 wall TIG welded upper control arms with replaceable adjustable length chromoly heim bearing pivots, 4140 chromoly cross shafts and easily replaceable Moog screw-in ball joints.  Shipped with the front bearing 3 turns further out than the rear. This adds approx. +3 degrees of positive caster to the spindle when installed before having to shim the front bolt or shorten the strut rod. More or less is easily possible by simply adjusting the bearings in or out. Arms and ball joints are compatible installed in stock all the way down to 1-3/4″ lower holes.  1″ drop template included.
  • Tubular .156 wall TIG welded lower control arms with replaceable chromoly, kevlar/Teflon lined mono-ball inner pivots and easily replaceable Moog screw-in ball joints.
  • A pair of our Adjustable strut rods.
  • Your choice of Street, Sport or Race valved Bilstein shock absorbers and matched Hypercoil coil-over springs tailored to your year vehicle.  Spring and shock assemblies comes pre-assembled complete with thrust bearings.
  • Optional double adjustable shocks available under the drop down menu below. Set the rebound and compression at #1 and you have our Street valving, set both at #5 and you have our Sport valving, both at #10 and you have our Race valving! Feel free to play anywhere in between to tune the ride how YOU want. This all aluminum shock body w/spring is 1.6lbs lighter than our standard steel bodied Bilstein shock assembly and features ride height adjustment threads on the body instead of a separate sleeve. The aluminum body will lower un-sprung weight and shed heat quicker for longer lasting high performance.
  • Lower CNC machined billet shock mounting brackets.
  • Upper laser cut, TIG welded shock mounting brackets.
  • Upper CNC machined billet stock spring seat adapter rings – Installs over the stock spring seat negating its removal.  No need to drill out the spot welds and hack up your car.
  • Laser cut engine bay cover plates – Covers the hole for a clean look in the top of the shock tower that the stock shock used to go through.
  • Hardware required to install the system.
  • Spanner wrench to adjust ride height.
  • Detailed instructions.
  • Easy ride height adjustment.  Our shocks feature a threaded sleeve, simply rotate the adjuster with the supplied wrench to raise, lower or cross weight the car.  No cutting springs, no guessing.
  • 50% better motion ratio allows use of lighter springs and more shock motion for improved control.  An improved motion ratio also has the side benefit that the forces directed through the spring and into the chassis will be lower.  Less tower flex and chance of cracking.
  • Although we have chosen what we feel and have calculated to be a great combo, coil over springs can be had in 25-50lb increments which is a vast improvement over the conventional spring offerings.
  • We’ve designed our system to feature super easy spring/shock removal.  The entire spring/shock assembly is held on by 1 bolt on the top and 1 bolt on the bottom.  No spring compressors, no swearing.
  • Heim bearing shock ends further reduce bind found in stock setup. This transmits road forces directly to the spring & shock allowing it to do what its designed to do and get the tire back on the road quicker for more control and better handling.  This can be compared to the benefits found in using roller spring perches on a conventional system.  Other systems on the market that use rubber or polyurethane shock bushings will bind during regular suspension travel and when the strut rod is used to move the lower control arm to set caster.
