Ws6?

I don't know if this is a stupid question or not, but do all Trans Am's have ws6 suspensions? Mine is is ws6. I read somewhere that not all were optioned this way. Just curious. Thanks.

FirebirdNYC, base firebirds did not come with the ws6 suspension because firebirds are lower end models. Your Firebird probably has the ws4 suspension which gets the performance suspension badge. One of the reason you may have a ws6 logo on a wheel cap is because those are interchangable. Just a guess there on my part, but more than likely.

Are you sure WS4 is a suspension package? My Trans Am also has the "Performance Suspension" badge on the lower passenger-side dash and has WS4 in the RPO codes.

However, the thirdgen.org RPO decoder reads "WS4 : MODEL CONVERSION, TRANS AM" (compared to the WS6 RPO which reads "WS6 : PERFORMANCE PACKAGE, SPECIAL").
