QA1 97-13 Chevy Corvette Front Pro-Coilover Shock Absorber - Double Adj. - 8in x 450lb/in - Aluminum

Upgrade your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette with QA1 Proma Star Pro Coil double adjustable front coil-over shocks. These aluminum units replace leaf spring suspension for better handling, ride quality, and ride height adjustment from 1 to 2 inches on base models or 0.5 to 1.5 inches on Z06. Fine-tune compression and rebound valving independently for street or track use while keeping factory mounting points.

Key Features

  • Ride Height Adjustment: Up to 2 inches of drop lowers center of gravity for improved cornering and balance.
  • Double Adjustable Valving: Independent rebound and compression tuning delivers precise control over ride quality and handling.
  • Bolt-In Design: Uses factory locations and works with stock or QA1 tubular control arms, no toe link kit required.
  • 450lb/in Spring Rate: Medium firmness suits road driving with track capability, reducing body roll.
  • Aluminum Construction: Lightweight 8-inch stroke design, serialized, dyno-tested, made in USA.

Product Notes

  • Register at qa1.net/warranty with serial numbers before install for coverage.
  • Medium spring rate ideal for street-driven cars with occasional track days.
  • Ships in protective box, 21 x 8.5 x 8.5 inches, 13.9 lbs.

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Models with electronic ride control need Real Time Damping simulators.
  • Bolts into factory mounts, basic hand tools required, no additional relocation kits.
