shocks and caster camber plates

Can I get some info on what shocks and struts are the hot ticket for a 3rd gen Camaro, and where we can get the strut tower plates we saw on many of the cars?

Yellow Koni's seem to be the favored shocks/struts. Checkout Summit for those items in the clearance section - sometimes they're in there for big discounts.

 

Regarding the camber/caster plates, I'm wondering too...

The caster camber plates are sold by Global West and Ground Control that I know of. I have the Ground Controls and am not impressed by the quality of that hardware. Anyone got any other sources? Strut tower braces can be had by those two places and a number of other sources. Only Edelbrock (3pt) or Ground Control (2pt.) have them for carb third gen f-bods, I am looking to sell my Ground Control 2pt (never used).

 

Most folks use the Koni Yellows, SA (single adjustable) or DA (double adjustable). I got mine from RD Enterprises down San Diego way.

For all the bargain hunters out there...eBay frequently has listings for competition Koni's..the da yellows front struts usually sell for around $100 per set and the rears around the same...big savings.

We are currently in production of them. It will probably be another 3 to 4

weeks before they are ready to ship. We are make several hundred sets and

are taking pre orders at a discounted price of $155.09 and after we start

shipping orders will be $182.45. They will be available in red or black.

 

Thanks,

Brian,

Sorry to be dense, but are you referring to the shocks or camber plates? Is the price per shock/strut or for a set?

 

Also, I was able to chat with one of the guys from Global West, since their location is about 2 miles from me, and they only make camber plates for Mustangs, not us Camaro folks.

Hey Kevin, this is Julie, I posted something I got from Brian about caster camber plates for 3rd gen f-bods. Sorry about the misinformation that Global West made these, I meant to correct that. Anyway, Brian is offering a great deal on the caster camber plates, I have signed up for a set.
