Check the rear suspension kit number before selecting the shocks. This pair mounts to the matching Ridetech 4-Link in a first-generation Camaro or Firebird. The four-link is a separate purchase, so inventory its mounts and hardware alongside these coil-overs.

 

Fitment

  • 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird with the matching Ridetech 4-Link already fitted.
  • This pair does not convert the stock leaf-spring suspension by itself.
  • Manufacturer-listed models: 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro; 1967-1969 Pontiac Firebird.

 

Specifications

  • Part 11166510; two rear HQ single-adjustable shocks with 5.2-inch stroke and two 12-inch, 200-lb/in springs.
  • Exact manual center-to-center references: 11.23 inches compressed, 13.875-14.50 inches at ride height, and 16.43 inches extended.

 

Included

  • HQ shocks with installed bearings, coil springs, Delrin spring washers, upper spring plates and retaining rings, lower adjusters and locks, and upper bearing-half spacers.

 

Before ordering and installation

  • Match the supplied bearing/spacer arrangement to the exact Ridetech 4-Link mounting points. Do not substitute mounting dimensions from a generic shock listing.
  • Assemble the spring retainers and adjusters in the manual's order. Set the initial spring seats as directed, then jounce and roll the fully weighted car to settle it.
  • Keep the manual's 40-60 percent shock-travel target at ride height. Never lower the spring seat enough to leave the spring loose at full extension.
  • Check axle, spring, tire and exhaust clearance throughout travel. The exact manual's initial rebound setting is 12 clicks softer than full stiff; fine-tune after the car is assembled.
