1996 Chevrolet Caprice and Impala SS Resource Guide

1996 Caprice/Impala SS - Suspension

Caprice Classic has independent Short/Long Arm front suspension with coil springs and a steel stabilizer bar. The Salisbury-type four-link rear suspension also uses coil springs; a rear stabilizer bar is standard on Impala SS. The optional B4U Sport suspension includes:
  • G80 limited slip rear axle
  • P235/70R-15 blackwall radial tires
  • Leather-wrapped steering wheel
  • Trailering package with heavy-duty cooling
  • Engine oil cooler.
Impala SS is equipped with high gas-pressure monotube de Carbon shock absorbers. In addition to improving heat dissipation and fade resistance, the single-tube construction of the shock absorbers provides an increased working area for a given outside diameter.
  • Permanent pressurization eliminates cavitation
  • Separation of the oil and gas prevents aeration
  • Unique monodisc valve design allows for precise valve settings and near-instantaneous reaction times.
