Need a Different Year?
Chevrolet Bel Air, 210, 150, Nomad Coilover Kit
Years: 1955-1957
While the Tri-Five Chevys of 1955, 1956 and 1957 are revered for their magnificent styling and the introduction of the legendary small-block, there are also several significant upgrades to the chassis.
The frame was all-new, with box sections that varied in size and shape according to placement, while a new structural arch (plenum) increased torsional rigidity. Gone was the bolt-on front suspension carrier, which was now formed as part of the frame. With a switch to ball joints, engineers designed anti-dive properties into the independent front suspension. At the rear, leaf springs mounted outside the frame rails increased stability.
Whether it’s a 1955-1957 Chevy Bel Air, 210, 150 or Nomad you’re updating, an Aldan American coilover suspension package is an excellent upgrade. For your Tri-Five, you can choose from front coilovers alone or as a kit with rear shock absorbers. The kits are 100% bolt-on with no cutting, drilling or welding required for an easy installation.
With Aldan American adjustable spring perches, you can lower the front ride height of your 1955-1957 Tri-Five by up to 2.0-inches. And with our single- and double-adjustable front coilover shocks, you can tune the suspension to match your driving style.

I just upgraded my ’63 Chevy Nova from an older style coilover to the Aldan American Nova kit and it made such a difference. The kit makes the entire front suspension simpler and stronger while the ride quality is noticeably smoother and quieter. Definitely worth the upgrade.
I’ve had Aldan’s on my car for over 2 years. I run autocross and drag race and the Aldan team has helped guide me on my shock settings and adjustments to give my car peak performance. Aldan American is there to help you every step of the way to get your suspension dialed in.
Aldan American’s double adjustable coilover kit has transformed my 1994 C4 Corvette from a sloppy ride to something very close to my S550 GT Mustang. The handling is precise and it now has the perfect stance. Very happy with the results. I highly recommend Aldan American coilovers and the team there are great people to work with.
