Gepfeffert DDC without adjustable camber dome bearings

The gepfeffert DDC without adjustable camber dome bearings is mounted with the standard support bearings. We refer to the gepfeffert chassis without camber dome bearings as the "small depth version". Definition "small depth version": We distinguish here coilovers of the brand gepfeffert.com made by KW, with or without adjustable camber dome bearings (model & platform dependent). The suspensions without camber dome bearings have up to 35mm more lowering, compared to a standard KW coilover suspension. Example Golf 7 GTI:

• Series KW coilover suspension: adjustment range 20-45mm
• GEPFEFFERT KW coilover suspension: adjustment range 35-70mm

These suspensions were built specifically for our customers, who have put the focus on a maximum of 15-35mm more lowering compared to a series KW coilover suspension, without using a gepfeffert version with camber dome bearing (Uniballlager). The chassis with adjustable camber dome bearings, on the other hand, have even greater "leeway" for even more lowering and even more upgrade options, in order to be able to tailor the vehicle even more individually to the requirements of the respective driver. Example Golf 7 GTI:

• Series KW coilover suspension: adjustment range 20-45mm
• GEPFEFFERT KW "small depth version" without camber dome bearing: adjustment range 35-70mm
• GEPFEFFERT KW with adjustable camber dome bearings: adjustment range 45-95mm (upgrade possibilities with other spring systems up to 130mm possible)

Chassis of the brand gepfeffert KW "small depth version" (without camber dome bearing) can of course also be found here in the online store.  

Individual or maximum lowering

KW DDC coilovers are the intelligent suspension solution for retrofitting from the KW iSuspension product range. They combine the advantages of an adaptive damping system with a stylish and sporty lowering according to your individual ideas. The adaptive KW coilovers are available as KW DDC Plug & Play variants for vehicle models with electronically controlled standard suspension.  

More comfort or more sport - you decide

More and more premium vehicles today are equipped with an adaptive suspension system. Until the market launch of KW DDC Plug & Play, you often had to compromise on an individual desired lowering and often even do without your extra paid active control systems and comfort features. In contrast, with the adaptive KW DDC Plug & Play coilovers, you are free of compromises and can combine the control of your standard damper system with a stepless lowering and the driving dynamics of a KW coilover suspension.  

The gepfeffert.com® DDC Plug & Play coilover suspension made by KW

During installation, the standard struts are simply replaced with the KW struts manufactured in stainless steel technology "inox-line" and the adaptive KW dampers are connected to the standard on-board electronics using the original connectors from your car manufacturer. No further assembly steps are necessary with the KW DDC Plug & Play coilovers. The standard dampers can simply be replaced with the KW DDC (Dynamic Damping Control) coilover suspension. The existing control system and the switch installed in the interior for operating the damper control are retained.
