COILOVERS DS / BC RACING / VOLVO 740/940

BC Racing DS coilovers for Volvo 740/940

This BC Racing DS coilover kit is a new product intended for the Volvo 740 and Volvo 940. Developed for drivers seeking more precise, more adjustable and more effective suspension, the DS range benefits from BC Racing's experience in motorsport and chassis preparation.

Thanks to advanced digressive technology, these coilovers offer an excellent balance of sports performance, comfort and vehicle control, both during dynamic road driving and occasional track sessions.

Purpose of the part

Coilovers replace the original suspension components to control body movement, tyre grip and vehicle stability. They allow adjustment of ride height and damping firmness to adapt the Volvo 740 or 940 to spirited road driving, track days or chassis preparation.

DS technology uses digressive valve damping, called Double Digressive Valving, which strengthens control at low piston speeds to limit roll, pitch and weight transfer while maintaining a stable, effective response during fast compression movements.

Symptoms or consequences of worn or unsuitable suspension

• Imprecise handling in corners or during changes of load.
• Excessive roll, dive under braking or squat under acceleration.
• Loss of traction and grip on uneven roads or during sports driving.
• Worn dampers causing bouncing, instability or uneven tyre wear.
• Ride height unsuited to sports use or a specific wheel configuration.

Benefits of replacement

• A clear improvement in driving precision and chassis feedback.
• Reduced roll and better control of weight transfer.
• Height adjustment independent of spring preload to retain effective suspension travel.
• 30 levels of rebound and compression adjustment via a single knob.
• Sportier handling while retaining comfort suited to road use.
• An ideal solution for a modified, lowered or dynamically driven Volvo 740 or 940.
