82-92 Spohn Performance “Pro-Drag” Front Coil Over System

Spohn Performance’s “Pro-Drag” front coil over kit sets a new, higher standard of performance and quality. When Spohn designed the coil over system, they had two goals in mind. One was to provide the performance capabilities needed for the toughest drag strips, the second was to provide the strength and durability required for the demands of a daily driven vehicle. Spohn is proud to say that they have accomplished both. If you are looking for the best drag race front coil over suspension system for the third generation F-Body, you just found it.

Once thought of as a race only item, coil-over suspensions are now considered the hot set-up for any highly tuned drag car. The combination of incredible weight transfer with great ride quality is what one expects from a world class drag car. With a Spohn “Pro-Drag” coil-over conversion kit you will have the no-compromise performance you demand without paying a penalty in comfort.

The “Pro-Drag” coil over system uses an extremely long (14″), yet extremely light (175#) spring for the most stored spring energy possible, providing tremendous weight transfer and an incredible launch. With the design of Spohns system, they can use this extremely long spring, yet still allow for over 1″ of ride height lowering.

Warning! All coil-over kits are not created equal. Compare the features of our kit with any other manufacturer’s kit and you’ll quickly see the differences. Careful attention to detail by Spohns design team is why the Spohn coil over kit avoids the design pitfalls of others. You can always depend on Spohn Performance to provide you with the best parts for your F-Body!

Other coil over kits on the market use a top spring hat mounted against the stock upper strut mount. This places the entire weight of the front of the car on to the stock strut mount. With street driving and vehicle loads, these systems cause the stock strut mounts to distort, bend, and fatigue, ending in parts failure. The Spohn “Pro-Drag” front coil over system includes a fabricated steel spherical upper strut mounts combined with a lower reinforcement plate that totally sandwiches and reinforces the entire strut tower.
