1978-88 Monte Carlo, Malibu, El Camino, Regal, Cutlass & Grand Prix · Level 2: Front & Rear Coilover Conversion · Small Block · Single Adjustable · Part # LCAUCA7888-ALDFR1

Convert all four corners of your 1978-88 GM G-Body to fully adjustable coilovers. This package pairs our tubular upper & lower control arms with a genuine Aldan American single adjustable front & rear coilover kit, with 450 lbs./in. front and 160 lbs./in. rear springs matched to a small block engine.

The coilovers use your car's factory upper spring pockets and give you ride-height adjustment up to about 2.0" lower than stock up front, plus shock adjustment to go from comfortable cruiser to firm and planted. Aldan coilovers are billet aluminum, nitrogen charged, rebuildable and made in the USA.

Before You Order: Please Read

• Engine / spring rate: this kit has small block springs (450 lbs./in.). Aluminum-block LS engines usually use small block springs; iron-block LS, big block and supercharged V8s use big block springs. Not sure? Call us.
• Disc brakes & spindles: designed for cars with disc brakes and recommended with stock-height spindles.
• Lower shock mount: if your lower control arms have 5/16" welded nuts at the shock mount, they must be removed or reamed to 3/8" for the Aldan coilover T-bar. Modified parts are non-returnable.
• Optional: our ALD-39 lower control arm coilover support plates spread the coilover load and add about 1/4" of ride height.
• Not included: sway bar end links, brake parts and alignment.
• Rear end: rear coilovers and brackets are designed for factory-style rear ends with trailing-arm (4-link) rear suspension.
• Prefer a different spring rate or double adjustable shocks? Call us at 866-601-4455 and we'll build the right package.

Installation Notes

• Grease the ball joints and bushings before the car goes back on the ground.
• Set ride height with the spanner wrench before final alignment.
• Have the front end aligned by a professional after installation.
• Re-check all fasteners after the first 100 miles.

Warranty

• Pirate Jack control arms: 1 year
• Aldan American coilovers & shocks: Aldan limited lifetime warranty
