PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The UMI bolt-in rear coilover kit provides comprehensive adjustments for ride height, spring rate, and damping, in addition to enabling trailing arm adjustments for precise calibration of the instant center. This kit is equipped with a fortified upper mount, specifically designed to accommodate a 2-1/2” racing coilover with a double-shear configuration. The lower brackets, engineered through Finite Element Analysis (FEA), are reinforced and are designed to be bolted directly onto the existing rear lower control arm mounts. These brackets also feature an adjustment mechanism for trailing arm height, facilitating the tuning of the instant center location. This product is manufactured and tested in Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, utilizing materials sourced from the United States.

We advise that the brackets be installed initially and that measurements be taken from center to center at ride height to guarantee the precise identification of shock part numbers. Regarding compatibility, this kit is designed for direct installation with a GM axle housing and standard GM brackets. It is important to note that aftermarket housings may exhibit variations in design and configuration, which could render the 4057 bracket unsuitable. For installation purposes, welding is necessary for drag racing applications involving vehicles that achieve speeds of 10.50 seconds or faster or those utilizing slick tires. Conversely, bolted brackets are appropriate for street performance, autocross, and road racing applications.
Fitment Note: For stock axles only. Rear shocks may not clear all exhaust tail pipes.

PRODUCT FAQ

Q: What vehicles is the UMI Rear Coilover Conversion Kit compatible with?

A: The UMI Rear Coilover Conversion Kit is designed for GM A-Body vehicles, including popular models like the Chevelle. It's a direct bolt-on solution when used with a GM axle housing and stock GM brackets. For vehicles with aftermarket housings, compatibility may need to be assessed, as the bracket may not fit all layouts.

Q: What is included in the Rear Coilover Conversion Kit?

A: The kit includes reinforced upper mounts for a 2-1/2” racing coilover, FEA-designed lower brackets, and all necessary hardware for installation.

Q: Do I need any special equipment or skills for installation?

A: Basic mechanical skills and standard automotive tools are recommended for installation. While the kit bolts directly onto stock setups, welding is required for drag racing applications running 10.50 or faster, or when using slicks. We suggest professional installation if you're unfamiliar with suspension components.

Q: Will this kit affect my vehicle's ride height?

A:Yes, the coilover kit allows full ride height adjustability, enabling you to customize the stance and handling characteristics of your vehicle according to your preference or performance needs.

Q: Is this kit suitable for street use as well as racing?

A: Absolutely. The UMI Rear Coilover Conversion Kit is engineered for versatile use, suitable for street performance, auto-crossing, and road racing. For drag racing applications, specific modifications, such as welding, may be required for optimal safety and performance.

Q: Are there any fitment issues I should be aware of?

A: The kit is primarily designed for stock axles and may not fit all aftermarket configurations. Additionally, rear shocks might not clear all exhaust tailpipes, so an assessment of tailpipe routing may be necessary during installation.

Q: Why is this kit manufactured in the USA, and does it matter?

A:Manufacturing the kit in the USA ensures the highest quality standards, using superior US-sourced materials. This results in products that are reliable, durable, and track-tested to meet strict performance benchmarks—a key benefit for performance enthusiasts and professional racers.
