Fletcher's Customs and AFCO!! Bolt on monotube coilover w/ reservoir
 

"Fletcher's Customs has partnered with AFCO to bring you a true bolt-on MonoTube Coilover with the added benefit of a remote reservoir for extra fluid capacity! Attached is the first set of shocks using a 2.5" diameter 10" long spring with the added benefit of a remote reservoir that we'll be testing on my 70 Camaro "Shop Beater V3.0". These shocks fill a void in the market place where other companies are producing a bolt-on coilovers but no one is building a true MonoTube Coilover!"

Want your input on how we could further market these and what you think about this new step?
I'll also be working to get ones for the first gen guys in the coming weeks...

You can Contact me for pricing and availabilty. I will post more in the coming hours as I get caught up

How are those different than the ones DSE offers?

These are true bolt on to a stock subframe!DSE require substantial mods to subframe

Here is the AFCO press release from SEMA

Is a conical spring is used with the shock so the stock upper spring pocket can be used?

Mike

Yes it uses a QA1 style conical coil spring that sits in the upper subframe pocket then uses a coilover adjuster on bottom. I'll have a pic posted in a few minutes of the complete assembly

Here is the complete assembly with the bottom adjuster and a QA1 10gbf550 conical spring.

We are selling these things like crazy. Cost is very effective against Penske and the others. And these are more adjustable and offer more tuning. Getting ready to ship set to the Netherlands, and have shipped 4 sets in the last two weeks. Get them while they are hot $560 per corner, plus $55 for a Chrome spring in your choice of weight.
