1984-96 C4 Corvette Based IFS Front Suspension Kits

  Our weld-in C4 Corvette IFS front suspension kits will allow you to bolt your supplied C4 parts, use the specified rack & pinion and either Ride Tech Coil overs or Tech Shockwaves for air ride in place. Each weld-in kit is specifically designed per Make & Model for the easiest installation for the do it yourself builder. The narrower hub width (wmd) allows more choices for wheels and especially helpful on narrow or lowered vehicles. All kits are designed for use with the off-the-shelf, 1989-97 Ford power rack & pinion. If you like flat- faced, front wheel drive style wheels, we can custom build your front suspension wider.

 We also custom build for non-stock frames or most vehicles not listed. See the bottom of the page for some examples. Tech Sheets can be found in our Tech Info section at the top or left side of the screen. Vehicles must have trim-able inner fender panels for upper control arm clearance.

 Proudly manufactured at our shop in Baltimore Ohio.
