I just upgraded my '63 Chevy Nova from an older style coilover to the Aldan American Nova kit and it made such a difference. The kit makes the entire front suspension simpler and stronger while the ride quality is noticeably smoother and quieter. Definitely worth the upgrade. Also, really appreciated that Aldan had a whole Youtube installation video online. I think we can all agree that watching a video is leaps and bounds better than reading some black and white install instructions.

I purchased the recommended coilovers for my 1946 GMC truck with an S10 frame from Alden American. It was a huge improvement from the original springs and shocks. However, I still wanted to improve the ride. Aldan American didn't have the parts I wanted to try but instead of telling me they didn't have the parts and telling me they couldn't help me, they went above and beyond by locating the parts I needed. Garrett, the Aldan American employee that was helping me, found the parts at one of their competitors and gave me the part number. After installing the new parts with my Aldan American coilovers, my truck rides much smoother now. I am pleased with the ride and I can't thank Garrett enough for his help. The service at Aldan American is the absolute best. It just doesn't get any better than that.

In this day of either pathetic or even none existent customer service I was extremely surprised to get a throwback to the old days when making a customer happy was something that a company strived to do. I am talking about dealing with Aldan American they make coil-over shocks. I purchased a tubular control arm coil over suspension kit from Performance Online (POL) for the front of my 1968 small block Corvette. Let us say that this was some time ago. I had an issue with the kit from the time that I installed it. I emailed and called POL several times to no avail. The issue was that after I installed suspension and the engine the car sat very high in the front end, in fact it was smashing the upper bump stops. At this point I wasn't sure how to proceed. Then I thought about contacting the people who supplied the shocks and coil-over springs to POL for the kit. I called Aldan and talked to Jamie one of their tech people. I explained the problem and what I thought it might be (the wrong springs). He asked me to look at a springs so that I could supply him with a part number. I told him that I would do so and call him back. I took one side apart to get the spring out and called him back. Sure enough POL had supplied me a kit with not only the big block springs but the heaviest ones Aldan supplies. I told Jamie that I was willing to pay for the new springs. I just wanted to get this part of the assembly done. He asked for my POL invoice number and said that he would exchange the correct ones for the ones that I had been supplied. I really like dealing with this type of personal and company. It makes life so much easier.

Terrible Customer Service; we had issues in finding any instructions on their website and when we brought up this issue they "ghosted" us via email. Take your business elsewhere if you want any assistance after the purchase. The product itself seems to be high quality but it did not come with specific vehicle instructions or any word that a sway bar relocation kit was needed. I have given them ample time to respond to my email with concerns but to no avail. Buy at your own risk.

I've tried many different companies not mentioning any names but I just want to say iam super happy with my coilover set up on my previous 1967 camaro and now 1970 chevelle from Aldan American. Once I got the height dialed in I went and fined tuned the easy knob for soft comfort ride or stiff for track (I went with more on the comfort ride)With 2 adults up front 3 teenagers in the back trunk full of chairs (4), canopy and a small cooler I was expecting a harsh ride. Needless to say she rode perfect! Thanks again aldan american

Hats off to Spencer.. had ordered coil overs for a 68 Camaro with drop spindles..well I ordered the wrong ones. Spencer took the time to help me out, I have aerospace brakes already set up on 2” spindle so long story short, 5 stars.. could not ask for better Teck & service. ??

update owner called me and was very cool down to earth I’m changing the 1 start to 5 was very outstanding and professional giving me a full refund and letting me keep the bracketsThanks GarrettVery disappointed bad customer service, jegs called Aldan American regarding coilover fitment before purchasing just to find the rear shock bracket were not the right fitment then I personally called aldan American just to be told I need a different set of brackets and it will be 90 bucks extra on top of the 1,600 I spend on the full kit just to be charged 216 dollars for 2 metal brackets? That’s bizarre not only I had to pay an extra 90 bucks but they over charged meNowhere in their website states any price for brackets I think they just bullied me over the phone and gave me a phony price it’s insane never again just horrible customer service what so ever not even a receipt was giving or a email. Best believe I will be calling my bank about this issue !Now I will wait for an automated response saying if there any problem with your experience please give us a call, like why do I have to call ? Makes no sense they just don’t care of customers paying top dollar for their product….!!!!! Will be telling everyone in the market for coilovers to go get a different brand OTHER THEN THIS ONE

100114 is the part number they listed for my 1966 Buick Lesabre. I verified and was told 100% this was the shock I needed. It was 4" too short, couldn't not even get the wheel off the car with the shocks mounted in place, had to remove the lower shock bolt to drop the axle Down to get them on /off. I told them my issue, seemed all good, they expedited me new shocks that fit but charged me $173 deposit and $103 restocking fee for the original Part they sent that was incorrect. This company has zero customer service skills and it is Garbage to do people this way.

I’m a car collector mostly chevy’s. I have 7 of them and I have Aldan American coil overs on all them. The Quality of them is hands down the best. As soon as you open the box and pick them up you can tell no corners are cut making them. The instructions they come with are good and easy to follow. They aren’t to hard to install. If you can install a coil spring and a shock you can install these. The ride quality is beyond amazing. With the turn of a knob you can go from a comfortable daily driver to a track ready monster. I have not had a single problem and I’ve been running them for close to 5 years now. From the coil overs to the customer service I couldn’t be happier!

I have their product on my car for over 2 years. As I go back and forth between autocross and drag racing, they have given me guidance on the settings and adjustments to give my car peak performance. I have improved my 60' times from a 1.8, to a 1.6-1.5 consistently at the track. If you have any questions they are willing to work with you and support you in any way they can. I recommend and have helped install a few of their suspension parts on Corvettes! Best priced solution for racing at the moment! Give Garrett a call and let him know Paul sent you! I am sure he will be pumped to know you are giving their product a chance!!

I ordered the coilover conversion kit for my 67' C-10 on June 25th from Spencer, who was incredible with his customer service and knowledge of the Aldan American products, and was able to have them installed over the past weekend. They look great but there was an issue with the ball joints. The ones I had were for a 73 and up and they had a small taper instead I needed a larger taper. I spoke with Spencer who put me in touch with Mr. Garrett. He was not only professional and courteous, but was generally concerned about fixing my issue with the ball joints. He made sure I had the proper ball joints and swapped out my lower control arms for better fit. How rare is that!! someone was actually concerned about customer service!! I am now a life long customer of Aldan American and will tell all of my friends and fellow firefighters what a quality group with a great product. Well done Garrett and Spencer!! Could not be happier with my purchase! Keep up the great work. B

I called Aldan American to ask if they make a coil-over shock kit for my 1960 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 2 door coupe. I was redirected to Gary Nelson. He told me that there had been a few others looking for the same set up that I was. No other company makes coil-over shocks for this car. Gary asked me to send him some pictures of my cars suspension. Two weeks later Gary e mailed me with very good news. They made me a custom coil-over shock kit for my Oldsmobile. The customer service is great. There workmanship is first class. A great company to do business with. Thank you, Rick and Tya.
