Speedtech Performance assumes no responsibility for the installation of any of its products

Some Items pictured may look different then the parts you have in the kit you received.

early Camaro. Your application may have a slightly different shape the part is functionally the

1.2 Overview
These instructions outline the Chicane Coilover Brackets. The system has been designed to work
with a factory subframe or chassis. Some photos in the install process may vary slightly from your
exact application.
WARNING!
Once assembled you will need a professional wheel alignment performed. Driving a
vehicle without a proper alignment can be dangerous, towing is recommended to transport the
car prior to the alignment being performed.
While Speedtech's Chicane Coilover Brackets work great as an upgrade for your factory
suspension, it is also designed to meet the needs of those intending participate in off highway
road racing and autocross competition. To achieve maximum benefit from our system you should
anticipate adjusting and tuning of the suspension to achieve optimum performance specific to the
vehicle, driver and type of racing. Some of this, such as tuning sway bars and shock settings, can
be done track side through making adjustments and seeing/feeling how the car reacts to these
changes. We recommend a tire probe pyrometer and good quality air pressure gauge be in your
track side tuning kit.
