Get a range over 3" of adjustment, while still riding in comfort and safety. Our plates restore the factory ride quality at the new ride height. We make drop plates and raise plates that fine tune your ride, unlike the common adjustable plates, which were made only for adjustment at stock heights.
Our plates are sold in pairs and are constructed from CNC machined grade 50 structural spring plates, at 1/4” thick, whereas factory thickness is only 3/16”. Our Spline Stubs are also CNC machined from 1026 carbon steel. Now featuring our bolt together design, eliminating our previous welded design! Even our Adjuster Tabs are precision CNC machined custom with our logo on it. Our products are powder coated with a durable and flawless finish in satin black and alien silver, far more superior than the standard industry zinc coating.

Billet Dust Covers
Our medium-stub (not short stub) spring plates are designed with open ends on purpose so that the torsion bar can be installed from the outside if the installer chooses to. Click here to see. However for those who insist on a clean look and do not want the torsion bar exposed to the elements, we manufacture dust covers. They are made from either billet aluminum or billet stainless steel, and use 3 set screws to hold firmly into place.
We have brought back the rolling element bearing to the rear suspension due to popular demand, and these are even better than before! If you have a big engine, this kit should be considered a must! Stop wasting your horsepower in wheel hop and put your power to the road! This kit will reduce or completely eliminate wheel hop, which allows your car to hook up, instead of spin the tires in vibration. Additionally, it allows your tires to experience more road time, both in acceleration and in cornering, because it frees up the friction that bushings impose on your suspension. These sets eliminate the outer bushings entirely and replace them with precision ground roller bearings.
All of the parts in this kit are precision CNC machined! The sealed roller bearings are made of hardened steel that cannot not deflect. This setup is far superior to plastic bushings, including Urethane and Delrin, which will deflect back and forth as your tires force the spring plates into them. Additionally, Urethane and Delrin breakdown over time. Don’t be fooled by the hype - steel rolling element bearings are superior to all polymers across the board; they are stiffer, they free up your suspension to react better to the road, and they far outlast bushings!
