  • 96 vs 2000 front suspension

    i need to know if there are any major differences between the 96 cammaro and 2000 firebird front suspension. i trashed mine and need to replace the control arms and craddle. any input is appreciated
    the curb that you don\'t see is always the most damaging

    The only difference should be the spindles and brakes. The control arms will work on anything 93-02, the cradle should work, but you'll want to double check that.

      THe springs are stiffer and the sway bar is smaller if you plan on using them...

        Since you have a 2000, the 96 front suspension has softer springs, smaller disc brakes on a different knuckle, a bigger sway bar, and different shocks than you. The upper and lower A-arms are the only common parts.
