DSE Rear Speed Kit 3 - Base Shocks - Stock Axle (041613DS) - 1967 GM A-Body
Transform the rear suspension of your 1967 GM A-Body with the Detroit Speed Rear Speed Kit 3. Designed for applications retaining the stock rear axle, 041613DS combines Detroit Speed's patented Swivel-Link rear suspension technology with performance-focused coilover shocks and springs, chassis bracing, and a tubular rear sway bar. The system is engineered to maintain optimum suspension geometry and tire contact throughout the full range of rear suspension travel, giving your classic a more planted, predictable feel when accelerating, braking, and carving through corners.
Detroit Speed's patented Swivel-Links allow the rear axle housing to fully articulate without relying on noisy spherical heim joints. The design also allows pinion angle and wheelbase adjustments without unbolting the links from the vehicle, making it easier to dial in the rear suspension. This 041613DS version uses non-adjustable base shocks, providing Detroit Speed's performance-oriented suspension package without the additional tuning requirements of an adjustable shock. A chassis-mounted tubular rear sway bar further improves cornering stability, while the complete system is designed to complement Detroit Speed front suspension upgrades for balanced handling and ride quality.
