		<title>1969 Camaro Combination 3 &amp; 4 Link Rear Suspension is Powered by Spohn Del-Sphere Pivot Joints</title>
		<link>https://www.spohn.net/support/news/25/</link>
		<description>
When Art Morrison first approached us with the idea of the transforming combination 3 and 4 link rear suspension for our 1969 Camaro project, we loved the idea. And after I thought about it a bit longer, I called Matt Jones (their suspension engineer) at Morrison and told him to be sure and design the brackets of the new suspension to use Spohn Performance Del-Sphere pivot joints. Matt took some measurements and they were able to accommodate us...... Read the full story

		<title>StreetLegalTV.com: Project Grandpa Caprice Wagon Getting Ready For Testing Video</title>
		<link>https://www.spohn.net/support/news/24/</link>
		<description>Yes, it&amp;rsquo;s been a little while since we last brought you an update on Project Grandpa, our 1982 Caprice whose longing to see 11&amp;rsquo;s and still be nimble enough to master the autocross track. Yes, our ambitions are high, and to be honest, saying Grandpa was a little weak in the knees would be like saying a Corvette is a little faster than the Prius &amp;ndash; a huge understatement.....

		<title>Is Al Marlow the Fastest Man on 275 Drag Radials?</title>
		<link>https://www.spohn.net/support/news/23/</link>
		<description>
 
Is Al Marlow the fastest man on a 275 drag radial? We think he is!
On Friday October 8, 2010 at Maryland International Raceway Al Marlow laid down a blistering pass of 4.84 at 150 MPH.
The complete Spohn Performance suspension hanging under this beast had the 275 Hoosier drag radials digging out a 1.25 60&amp;prime; time. How&amp;rsquo;s that for traction on a small tire?
Congratulations go out to Al Marlow and his crew for their fantastic 2010 season so far.
 
Al Marlow runs a complete Spohn Performance Suspension - do you?

Those of you who think that the 1/8 mile run is for babies, need to think that through again. Breaking into the 4 second club when running the eighth mile track isn&amp;rsquo;t for the faint of heart. Cars that do blow through the 4 second barrier typically run mid-sevens on the long track.......Click here to read the full article </description>

If you would like to pick up your order  from our location you can now select &amp;ldquo;Pick Up at Spohn Performance&amp;rdquo; as  your shipping option when placing your order online. This option  requires you to pick the date that you will be picking your order up so  that we can have everything ready for you upon your arrival. Available  pick up days and hours are listed as well.

		<title>2010-2011 Camaro SS Rear Axles Package Updated to 1400 HP Rating &amp; Detailed Installation Instructions &amp;  Pictures</title>
		<link>https://www.spohn.net/support/news/16/</link>
		<description>


Our 1000  HP Extreme-Duty rear axles for the 2010-2011  Chevrolet Camaro have been re-designed and updated to a new 1400 HP  rated set-up: We  are proud to introduce our updated 1400   HP Extreme-Duty rear axles for the 2010 Camaro. We were going to  put a 1800 HP rating on them, but knowing the stock  differential will  break at about 1000 HP, we feel the 1400 HP number is impressive enough.
We recently were made aware that our 108mm outer CV and bolt system  may have a clearance issue on an extremely lowered car squatting hard at  the track. We took our test car through its complete suspension travel   and the bolts on a 108mm CV (any thing larger or longer than our 108mm  CV may be a catastrophic event bottoming the suspension out on the upper  control arm) and it barely  touched the rear upper control arm. With a  little grinding it would clear fine, but since its a brand new car and   &amp;ldquo;no one wants to grind&amp;rdquo; we have designed a new lower profile CV for this   application that is not only stronger, but more cost effective to  manufacture.
A word about axle bars: We have  been doing  extensive testing with some new proprietary material we have  obtained  from our supplier and have conducted extensive destructive testing. We  found out a few things.  In a high horsepower car, having one axle  thicker and one thinner only causes one axle to be weaker by up to 20%.  Our new axle design is made for the discerning car builder that has  dealt with wheel hop issues in a proper manner and is not trying to rely  on axles to stop it.
By making axles different diameters you get one weak axle and one  strong axle. We have decided to make our new 1400 HP Extreme-Duty axles  with two 1.375&amp;Prime; diameter extremely strong axles. We have worked very  hard and very long on this new system to not only bring you a better  choice of axles, but better axles at a better price. That&amp;rsquo;s right, not  only have we designed an even stronger axle set-up, but we have been  able to lower the price from $1849.95 a set to $1599.95 a set, a $250.00  savings!
Extensive Installation Instructions and  Pictures: We recently installed a set of these axles on our R&amp;amp;D car and  documented the installation with more detailed installation instructions  and step by step installation pictures. See the photo gallery below.
Part #C10-1400A &amp;ndash; 1,400 Horsepower Extreme Duty Rear Axles 2010+ Chevrolet Camaro SS
 Installation Instructions  See the  photo gallery below for step by step installation  pictures
Jack up the rear of the car and support  with jack stands,  block the front wheels
1.  Remove rear wheel with a 7/8&amp;rdquo; socket 2. Remove the axle to  wheel nut with a 1.25&amp;rdquo; socket 3. Disconnect the brake line from the  rear upper control arm with a  10mm wrench 4. Disconnect the ABS  line from the inner rear spindle with a 10mm  wrench 5.  Disconnect the rear upper control arm from the rear spindle with a  18mm  wrench 6. Disconnect the rear toe link from the  rear spindle with a 18mm  wrench 7. Disconnect the rear lower  trailing arm from the rear spindle with a  18mm wrench 8.  Disconnect the rear sway bar end link from the rear lower control  arm.  Remove the lower shock mounting bolt from the rear lower control  arm  with a 21mm wrench. Disconnect the rear lower control arm from the  rear  spindle with a 18mm wrench. Note on steps 6-8 you are only  disconnecting  the suspension pieces from the spindle end, do not  disconnect the  cradle mounted ends. There is no need to completely  remove them and  keeping the cradle mount ends in place will eliminate  any alignment  changes. 9. Pull the rear spindle off of the end of  the axle and tie it up  securely by wrapping a rope around the wheel  studs and securing the  other end of the rope to the vehicle. 10.  Pull the axle out of the rear end 11. Generously grease the  splines on the differential end stub end of  the new axle 12.  Hold the axle so the c-clip is facing DOWN on the differential  mounted  stub end 13. Gently slide the axle in to the  differential (c-clip facing DOWN)  until you hear and feel it bottom out.  If you need to tap the axle in  to the differential be sure to use a  block of wood between the axle and  the hammer so you do not mar the  spindle stub&amp;rsquo;s splines. 14. Generously grease the splines on the  spindle end stub end of the  new axle 15. Untie your spindle  and slide it over the end of the axle 16. Install the rear  upper control arm&amp;rsquo;s mounting bolt in to the  spindle mount hand tight  only 17. Install the rear lower trailing arm&amp;rsquo;s mounting bolt in to  the  spindle mount hand tight only 18. Install the rear  lower control arm&amp;rsquo;s mounting bolt in to the  spindle mount hand tight  only 19. Install the rear toe link&amp;rsquo;s mounting bolt in to the  spindle mount  hand tight only 20. Install the rear lower shock mount   bolt through the rear lower  control arm hand tight only 21.  Install the rear sway bar end link mounting bolt through the rear  lower  control arm&amp;rsquo;s mount hand tight only 22. Now go back and  tighten Steps 16-21 to the proper torque  specifications (see below) 23.  Reinstall and tighten the brake line to the rear upper control arm 24.  Reinstall and tighten the ABS line to the rear spindle 25.  Install the axle to wheel nut and torque to 199 ft/lbs. with a  1-5/16&amp;rdquo;  socket. You will need to apply the hand brake before attempting  to  torque the nut. Do NOT re-use the stock axle to wheel nut. Use the  axle  to wheel nut that was supplied with your new axle.
Torque Specifications:
Step  16 &amp;ndash; Rear Upper Control Arm to Spindle Bolt: 44 ft./lbs. Step 17 &amp;ndash;  Rear Lower Trailing Arm to Spindle Bolt: 30 ft./lbs. Step 18 &amp;ndash;  Rear Lower Control Arm to Spindle Bolt: 35 ft./lbs. Step 19 &amp;ndash; Rear  Toe Link to Spindle Bolt: 103 ft./lbs. Step 20 &amp;ndash; Rear Lower Shock  Mounting Bolt: 59 ft./lbs. Step 21 &amp;ndash; Rear Sway Bar End Link  Mounting Bolt: 36 ft. lbs.

		<title>New 2010-2011 Chevrolet Camaro Pro-Series Drag Race Rear Anti-Roll Sway Bar</title>
		<link>https://www.spohn.net/support/news/15/</link>
		<description>


Application: 2010+ Chevrolet Camaro
SKU #C10-921 
See the video tour below
Leaving the line sideways? Car looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa  when you launch? Bone jarring wheel hop?
Our Pro-Drag rear anti-roll sway bar eliminates torque steer and body  roll during hard launches and will drastically improve consistency and  stability going down the track. Spohn Performance&amp;rsquo;s Pro-Drag rear  anti-roll sway bar is the single biggest traction improvement you can  make to your Camaro. Our Pro-Drag rear sway bar dramatically reduces  body roll and wheel hop. Don&amp;rsquo;t skimp on the foundation of your rear  suspension!
The Spohn Pro-Drag rear anti-roll sway bar is a larger &amp;amp; stronger  32mm (1.25&amp;Prime;) diameter solid 4140 chrome moly rear sway bar to reduce  body roll on launch and dramatically reduce wheel hop. Compared to the  factory&amp;rsquo;s (SS) .865&amp;Prime; diameter rear sway bar our Pro-Drag rear anti-roll  sway bar really provides the Camaro with pavement digging wheel hop free  traction and provides for even 50/50 distribution of weight transfer at  launch. The three end link attachment points allow you to dial in the  stiffness your car best responds to. The provided Extreme Duty spherical  rod ended adjustable end links allow you to pre-load your rear  suspension for straight launches.
Our Pro-Series rear anti-roll sway bar is made from solid 4140 heat  treated spring grade chrome moly steel. The bar is entirely heat formed  and coined as one piece. We put our bar through this extensive process  to insure that the final product will be the strongest, most durable bar  on the market, and that it will be the most resistant to form  alteration.
Our Pro-Drag rear anti-roll sway bar includes fluted polyurethane  bushings with zinc plated bushing shells. The sway bar also includes two  chrome plated shaft collars that lock in the bar&amp;rsquo;s lateral position to  prevent any side to side movement. The entire assembly is a 100% bolt-in  installation with no drilling or modifications required! The sway bar  is available powder coated in your choice of the above colors for a  brilliant and durable finish.
End Links: Our Pro-Drag rear anti-roll sway bar  includes our Extreme  Duty rear end links for the ultimate in adjustability, strength and  performance.
