Letter to Customers
Dear Customers
I would like to take a moment to thank the thousands of you who have purchased products from me during my 35 years as a
chassis components manufacturer. I am continually reminded by your letters, emails & car show visits that I have the best job in the
world. I get to dream up magic stuff to modify your cars. Then, I get to build it in the coolest high-tech factory you can imagine.
Chassisworks remains committed to the development and manufacturing of components for your street and race chassis applications. Our
investment in technology — both on the factory floor and in our business systems — has been critical to this company’s continued success.
No other chassis component supplier has made this size of commitment to utilize the very best equipment and processes for the design, testing
and manufacturing of their products. This is why Chassisworks’ designs are the most-copied. Because Chassisworks has the most-advanced
automated factory, ours is the only company able to develop and produce state-of-the-art products made in America at competitive prices.
Our ability to continuously invent and refine products is made possible by our in-house research-and-development center. Chassisworks
has a large scanning coordinate measuring machine to fully document the exact size of specific car components or complete vehicles to exactly
determine the correct dimensions for any new retro fit component. The end result of this attention to detail is the legendary Chassisworks fit.
Because we actually install Chassisworks products on cars and trucks, we ensure that every part fits and works correctly before it’s
offered to you. Besides inspiring fresh ideas, this hands-on process ensures a constant refinement of existing components. It also gives
Chassisworks the foresight to make our chassis and suspension products easier for the home builder to install.
Our ever-growing NoFab products, featuring the enormously successful line of bolt-on front clips and rear g-Bar™ have been
expanded to include g-Street™ coilover-conversion front suspensions that are installed with ordinary hand tools — without welding.
This is an example of how our technological advantage benefits our customers. Our newest additions to our product line have pushed
the count of Chassisworks manufactured components to above 7,000. We provide more options and choices than anyone in the chassis
business, period. Around here, “state-of-the-art” isn’t just a sales slogan. Rather, it represents millions of dollars invested in high-
technology equipment. It stands for the thousands of hours devoted to getting those 7,000 components right, the first time. It means
we have gone above and beyond what the other guy has done to make our products more sophisticated and affordable.
Our VariShock line of shock absorbers is enormously popular and includes product applications for most American cars from 1955
to present including direct-fit adjustable struts. You may not even realize that you already have VariShock products on your car. A large
portion of our production is sold to other companies to brand as their own. Designed and manufactured by us, VariShocks are the latest
example of how Chassisworks constantly strives to develop revolutionary products — and why we lead the market in higher technology.
Our expanding road show visits over 50 venues each year. Check our web site schedule for the next event location near you, where
you can get expert technical advice and see the Chassisworks products in person.
Because Chassisworks actually manufactures the majority of the parts on these pages, I’m proud to guide you on a pictorial tour of
our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. A much more detailed version of our shop tour is online.

Welcome to Chassisworks: The Home of Higher Technology.

size, fit and usability — before we cut even
one piece of material. This exotic software
enables Chassisworks to bring you a more
effectively designed product — with proven
performance — more quickly and less
expensively than ever before. Of course, each
new product will still be rigorously tested in
the “real world.” However, by that point, its
performance is virtually guaranteed. With
these sophisticated engineering workstations,
we not only design a product that kicks butt;
we can calculate the force behind it! There’s
no other way to absolutely assure consistent
quality and parts performance.

F Many people have wondered how a


component as complex as our FAB9 rearend
housing can be priced so affordably. The “secret”
is sophisticated manufacturing equipment such
as this Amada Apellio combination of laser and
hydraulic forming, complete with sheet loader.

E All Chassisworks bent-tube products are created on one of two


computer-controlled, mandrel tube benders. These machines utilize the
latest technology in pressure die boost and assist, which pushes more
material into the outer radius of the bend to greatly minimize tube
thinning. Our mandrel-bent rails are the finest in the industry because
of these machines and the specially designed tooling that we have
developed. (Chris Alston pioneered mandrel-bent frame rails for drag
racing, and has made a huge investment in their successful production.)

F This hybrid-style laser cuts accurately enough to produce quality bolt
holes, unlike prior-generation machines. The laser cutter takes its drawings
directly from our software and positions them on the raw sheet to utilize
95 percent of the raw material. Moreover, our vacuum loader enables this
machine to be loaded and unloaded with minimal down time. Again, we
pride ourselves on providing Chassisworks customers with the highest-
quality parts at the lowest-possible prices.

E We also manufacture parts on a Mazak Pallatech


machining center — the very first of these huge machines to
be delivered in America. Its enormous work envelope enables
us to manufacture more parts per cycle. With 12 tables and
160 different tools available, we can machine large numbers
of parts with no setup time. (Its 50-horsepower, 15,000-rpm
spindle really makes the chips fly!) This machine enables us
to produce those high-quality, low-cost FAB9 housings.

F One of the best-known Chassisworks technical innovations is the


FAB9 series. It accepts the same internal gears as a Ford 9-inch and
provides a complete rearend housing for any vehicle. We developed this
custom welding fixture, enabling us to attach all the brackets needed for
your application and produce a custom rearend — in one day! Any of our
rear suspensions and all of our accessories can be quickly added to the
basic rearend assembly, based on the information provided in your order.
At Chassisworks, we truly “make to order” — but with “off-the-shelf”
pricing and delivery time.

E A high-density warehousing system that lets us stack finished


parts 25 feet high enables Chassisworks to maintain the largest
inventory in the industry. In fact, we ship 98 percent of all orders
within 24 hours! Our specially designed packaging and custom-
made boxes are engineered to package your order securely, in
fewer containers — saving you shipping costs.

KP's upper LayArms utilize the factory mounting
locations and are designed for high-travel, low-ride-
height, street-performance trucks. Depending upon
truck application, the control arm pivots will feature
polyurethane bushings or high-durometer bonded
rubber bushing assemblies. Factory balljoints are used to
accept factory or aftermarket spindles and allow simple
replacement when needed. LayArms are constructed
from mandrel-bent steel tubing, creating a lightweight
component durable enough for performance street use. All
arms receive a protective powder-coat finish and mount
using factory hardware.

◾◾TC 6 Radial-Mount Caliper


g-Street™ 16 uses Wilwood’s TC 6 radial-mount, six–piston bore design is borrowed from their racing caliper division

heavy clamping-force and durability requirements of today’s length of the pad. Piston bore volumes are matched to the

alloy blanks followed by a detailed machining process
which results in an extremely rigid and relatively lightweight
component. Six high-strength steel bridge bolts are used
to join the two halves, providing added resistance against
deflection and body separation at high pressure levels. To
protect the caliper body during operation, steel insert plates
are fitted along the inside to prevent wear from the edges of
the pads.
Six stainless-steel pistions of different diameters are used
to generate clamping force. Wilwood’s differential piston

◾◾Brake Pad Compound (BP-10)
Each g-Street™ brake kit ships with Wilwood’s versatile
BP-10 brake pads. The BP-10 compound is a medium-
friction pad compound with the low noise and dust levels
of a street performance pad, but with the increased friction
characteristics of a semi-metallic race compound. Pad
engagement is smooth with consistent response and a flat
torque curve throughout its entire effective temperature range.
BP-10 pads also provide good low to middle temperature wear
rates, bed quickly, and provide fast response without excessive
abrasion on vented iron rotors.

◾◾SRP Drilled Performance Rotors


g-Street™ 16 features a directional-vaned, cross-drilled and
slotted, black E-coated rotor measuring 16 x 1.38”. To increase
surface area and maximize cooling, thirty-six individual ‘I’-
shaped passages are cast internally into the rotor. Air passages
or vanes are directional and curved for increased airflow over
standard straight vented rotor designs. The slotted surface and
cross-drilled holes improve pad-to-rotor contact by wiping
the pad clean and allowing brake dust and gases to be easily
exhausted. Rotors are e-coated to prevent rust on internal and
external rotor surfaces.

◾◾Billet Aluminum Hat and Hub


Separate billet aluminum hats and hubs reduce unnecessary
weight and allow components to be easily replaced if
damaged or worn. Hats use a solid-wall, concave design to
improve rotor stability. Their black-anodized finish prevents
oxidation and resists scratching. Rotors and hats are secured
by aircraft-quality twelve-point flanged bolts and locking nuts
in a twelve-bolt configuration. Hubs are available in silver-
anodized matte finish with matching screw-on cap with O-ring
seal. Assemblies include both 4-3/4” and 5” five-lug bolt
patterns with 1/2 x 2-1/4” wheel studs or optional 1/2 x 3”
studs. Timken® tapered wheel bearings also included.

◾◾Dropped Spindles
Our 2-1/2” dropped spindles are CNC machined exclusively
for the g-Street 16” brake kit. The balljoint bosses are
designed for the 1973-87 style balljoint. Installation on 1963-

Varishocks provide a more usable adjustment range and response curve,
improved heat dissipation, and lightweight billet-aluminum construction. ▪▪ Broad range of travel lengths
▪▪ Lightweight billet-aluminum shock bodies
◾◾Improved Heat Dissipation ▪▪ High-strength billet-4130 strut bodies
Traditional twin-tube shocks provide damping force by
moving fluid back and forth between the inner compression
tube and the surrounding reservoir. This rapidly heats the fluid
that remains trapped inside the compression tube, causing
outgassing and shock fade. VariShock’s system of internal valves
circulates fluid in a single direction through the shock absorber
body, utilizing the entire volume of fluid to absorb heat.
Thermally conductive materials are used internally to further
help equalize fluid temperature. Heat energy is then dissipated
through the shock base and body. Coil-over threaded bodies
provide additional surface area for more rapid cooling.

◾◾Fluid Control
A shocks purpose is to limit the rate at which the suspension moves, whether
induced by road irregularities or by chassis movement. By carefully controlling
the rate of fluid flow into the different areas of the shock we can better manage
the suspension’s ability to keep the tire in contact with the road. VariShocks
operate with zero bleed, meaning that absolutely all fluid flow is purposely
directed and metered. By contrast, many manufacturers skimp on sealing the
shocks internals to lower manufacturing costs. The allowed internal leakage
makes valving adjustments less effective and lacking in precision. The VariShock
total-seal design gives you improved control over the entire range of damping
and enhances adjustment effectiveness at the slower range of piston speeds
(0-4 in/sec) that control small chassis movement and vehicle ride quality.
A combination of fatigue-resistant deflective-disk and adjustable poppet
valves focus damping forces at a range useful to the widest variety of
vehicle types and performance applications. Damping-force ranges differ
depending upon the adjustment features and mounting configuration of the
shock. Custom valve sets are also available to alter the adjustment range of
compression or rebound independently. VariShocks provide digressive damping
to permit finer adjustment at the higher range of piston speeds (6-12 in/sec)
that control rapid suspension movement and ride harshness. To give better
control of vehicle-handling without rapidly increasing ride harshness, rebound
(extension) valving is purposely stiffer with a broader adjustment range.

◾◾VariShock Quality
Delivering a finished product that is of excellent quality and value is the
primary focus throughout the VariShock product line. Unlike other brands in
this price range, VariShocks are engineered, manufactured, and assembled in
America using state-of-the-art engineering workstations and computer-

Builder Shock Program
The VariShock Builder Shock Program is specifically tailored to solve the unique
problems of correct shock fitment that custom car builders face. If a shock with
the correct style of mounts and range of travel is not offered through VariShock’s
standard inventory, a custom shock can be easily configured using the broad
selection of components available. VariShock has produced tens-of-thousands of
custom-built shock absorbers for its private label customers. We have the products
and experience for your project.
Builder Shocks are available in Smooth Body, Coil-Over, and Air-Spring styles with
over 20 different end mounts, choice of 8 travels lengths, and factory-valved, single-
adjustable, or double-adjustable valve sets. With literally thousands of possible
combinations, compromises in choosing shock absorbers are a thing of the past.
This catalog outlines the process of determining the correct length shock for
your project, selecting the desired mount hardware, and creating your part number.
VariShock has a substantial quantity of predefined shock valvings available.
Consultation about your build will allow us to select an appropriate valving set.
Additional custom made valving can also be developed for your application. Pricing
is dependent upon shock body, valving, and mount hardware. Builder shocks must
be ordered in pairs (quantity discounts available) and feature a quick turnaround
time of 2 to 4 weeks for delivery.

touch without damaging the spring
or causing it to take a set, which
ultimately changes the ride height.
Since this wire can flex more than
conventional wire, these springs have
greater travel than our competitors’
springs of the same rate. These springs
will allow your shocks to travel
their full range of motion without
going solid. This gives you greater
traction and control at full bump,
and additional suspension travel to
work with. If you are ready to take
advantage of higher technology with
greater travel and lighter, stronger
springs, step up to VariSprings.

Coil-Over - Spring Seats
◾◾Billet-Aluminum Spring Seat Hardware
To mount the spring over the shock, VariShock billet
aluminum upper and lower spring seats are required. Spring
seats utilize inset shoulders and application specific bores
to perfectly align the top mount, spring, and shock body.

Upper Spring Seats


Coil-over-shock upper seats feature an open slot that
allows the spring to be easily installed or replaced without
removing the upper mounting eye.

Lower Spring Seat


Optional offset
The one-piece lower spring seat rides on the shock-body upper spring seat
ACME threads and is used to adjust spring preload. Each
seat features two spring-loaded, ball-lock mechanisms to
securely hold the adjusted setting. When rotated, the ball-
locks and shock-body grooves provide positive-click stops
to audibly and physically notify you of every half-turn. The
lock mechanism is easily operated using a common 5/32” ACME threads
allen wrench to tighten (lock) or loosen (unlock) the spring
seat’s two set screws. The lower spring seat also features Stainless ball-lock
six individual notches that enable the VariShock four-tang
spanner wrench to interlock with the spring seat for slip- Inset shoulder
free adjustment. Upper and lower spring seats are anodized
for surface hardening and improved appearance.

Air-Spring Shock - Length Chart
◾◾CHOOSING A SHOCK LENGTH
Selecting the correct length shock for your application requires measuring between the chassis
mounting points with the suspension at the normal ride height position. That measurement must fall
between the minimum and maximum ride height length for a given shock travel length. Different
mount styles will add or subtract from the listed measurements as noted in the following pages.
