* SUPERIOR SUSPENSION GEOMETRY and STABILITY:
Detroit Speed's exclusive frame rail insert optimizes camber gain and roll center height, significantly improving front-end stability. The tubular upper and lower control arms reduce deflection, providing precise suspension movement and sharper handling response.
* FORGED UPRIGHTS & EXPANDED BRAKE OPTIONS:
Lightweight forged aluminum uprights feature modern hub-pack bearings for durability and reduced maintenance. This setup provides access to high-performance braking solutions for superior stopping power.
* MAXIMIZED TIRE CLEARANCE:
Designed for serious performance applications, these systems allow clearance for 275/35R18 tires on a 10 in. rim while maintaining full steering lock. Whether on the street or track, this setup ensures maximum grip without compromise.
* FACTORY COMPATIBILITY, PERFORMANCE UPGRADE:
These systems are optimized for factory 1987-93 V8 K-members and aftermarket K-members, ensuring seamless integration into high-performance builds. Some fabrication is required, but the result is a modernized, precision-tuned suspension that outperforms factory limitations.
