Chevrolet El Camino Coilover Kits & Suspension Upgrades
1968-1972
Third-Gen Chevrolet El Camino Coilover Kit
Years: 1968-1972
Like its predecessor, the third-generation El Camino was built on the A-body platform with a full perimeter frame. An independent coil spring front suspension and rear four-link coil spring suspension make it an excellent basis for aftermarket upgrades.
With updated styling for the 1968 to 1972 model years, the El Camino also saw the introduction of the SS 396 model, set apart by its black grille and lower body paint, chrome lower body moldings, power bulge hood, unique wheels, and SS396 emblems, along with its big block powerplant.
An Aldan American coilover suspension package is an excellent upgrade for your third-gen Chevy El Camino. Kits can be purchased with or without upgraded tubular control arms that improve handling and response. 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 1968-1972 El Camino by up to 2.0-inches in the front and 3.0-inches in the rear. And with our single- and double-adjustable coilover shocks, you can custom-tune the suspension to match your driving style.
