UMI Performance 67-69 GM F-Body Viking Front Coil Over Kit Double Adjustable- Bearing

When you're rebuilding the front suspension on your 1967-1969 GM F-Body, like a Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird, this Viking front coilover kit from UMI Performance is a solid option. What you get in this kit are two front coilover shocks, each featuring Viking's 19-position double adjustable damping system, and two hybrid coil springs. You'll also receive a spanner wrench and a thrust bearing kit, which makes adjusting your ride height much easier. The springs are designed to fit directly onto your vehicle's upper spring perch and the coilover shock bottom, meaning you won't need a spring compressor to install them.

The real advantage here is the adjustability. The shocks offer independent control over both compression and rebound damping, giving you 361 possible combinations to tune your suspension for everything from street cruising and drag racing to autocross and road racing. You can choose from several spring rates – 250lb for drag-only, 350lb for small block cruise or lightened drag cars, 450lb for small block cruise or big block drag, and 550lb for small block handling or most big blocks. The kit comes with bearing mounts on the lower shock attachment, which is recommended for performance applications like drag racing and autocross for increased reliability. UMI Performance also notes that these coilovers work well with their own lower A-arms or your factory lower A-arms, and they suggest pairing them with UMI's geometry-corrected upper A-arms for optimal performance.

These Viking shocks are built, dyno-tested, and serialized in Lakeville, Minnesota, and feature a brilliant protective finish to keep them looking good. The thrust bearing kit is highly recommended because it allows the spring seat to rotate on a bearing, making ride height adjustments smooth and easy, especially when the shock is still mounted on the car. You can adjust your ride height from stock to a 3-inch drop.
