Totally different front suspension between 3rd and 4th gen f-bodies. Afco does not make a strut for a 3rd gen. Cute pic, but totally irrelevant

He stated he needed a DA shock not a strut.
The car in the "cute pic" doesn't have a strut and neither does many if not most of those 3rd gen Camaros running in SuperStock yesterday at ETown Last edited by 1320racer; 06-05-2011 at 01:26 PM. |

You have no idea what you are talking about. No, a 4th gen does not have a strut, it has upper and lower control arms. A 3rd gen has a lower control arm and a strut, including every one you saw in stock or ss at e-town yesterday. Get a clue about what you are talking about. It's pretty easy to tell from the OP that he was talking about the front struts, even if he did say shocks. The only people who make an adjustable strut for those cars are koni (junk, but cheap. I have them, not a big fan), santhuff ( awesome, but very expensive) and QA1 just released a set that I have no info on.

Not going to argue. Again, the op should call and speak to Eric Saffel at Afco. Might also want to call Mike Pustelny at MPR

Hell I'll call Eric tomorrow, because if AFCO makes a reasonably priced set of struts for a 3rd gen then they have been hiding them. If they actually do make a pair I'd buy them to match the double adjustables on the rear

The OP is looking for the front struts, as the front shock on those cars is a strut. You just don't get it

My bad , i guess i should have said struts.
I don't think you can convert to shocks in superstock if it did not come on veh. Don't have rack & pinion either.

All the 3rd gens in that video have struts on the front, period. And I'm reasonably sure none have AFCOs on the front
