C5 Corvette Pfadt Featherlight Single Adjustable Coil Overs (1997-2004)
430-401001-N

aFe CONTROL Pfadt Featherlight Single-Adjustable Coilovers for 1997–2004 C5 Corvette
The aFe CONTROL Pfadt Featherlight single-adjustable coilover system, part number 430-401001-N, is a complete street-and-track suspension conversion for the 1997–2004 C5 Corvette. It gives the driver control over ride height and damping while replacing the limitations of the original fixed shock and transverse-leaf-spring arrangement.
This system is intended for the C5 owner who wants a more tunable chassis for performance street driving, autocross or track use. Independent coil springs at each corner allow the suspension to be set up around the car’s stance, tire package and intended use, while the single-adjustable dampers make it possible to refine ride and response without disassembling the system.
