Places to get struts, and type of struts

HI,

I am planning on a coilover steup on all the way around on my camaro.

Where is a good place to order nice aftermarket struts?

What type would you reconmend?

Is there anything special I need to tell the people while I am ordered?

Do all aftermarket struts have threads to adjust ride hide witht eh coil over?


Thank you:hail: :hail: :hail:

Global West is working on a coilover set up for the 4th gen. Camaro's. The rear coilovers to this kit will work on the 3rd gens. Doug at Global West told me he's working on possibly some type of bracket that can be hopefully drilled and bolted to the rear upper can area to strengthen and more evenly distribute the load of the coilover stud in the rear application.

PA racing currently sells a front coilover kit for third gens that will bolt in. However, I strongly suggest some front end fab-work to the fender/strut mount area to support the load better also.

Its allot of cutting/grinding/ and welding but it can be done safely.
