DSE X-Gen Universal QuadraLink Rear Suspension Kit - Non-Staggered (041720DS)
Bring Detroit Speed rear suspension technology to a custom full-frame build with the X-Gen Universal QUADRALink Rear Suspension Kit. Part number 041720DS is Detroit Speed's universal non-staggered system, engineered to integrate its proven 4-link suspension geometry into applications that are not covered by a vehicle-specific QUADRALink package. Designed for full-frame chassis applications, the system combines Detroit Speed's exclusive geometry with patented Swivel-Link technology to deliver smooth suspension articulation, precise rear axle control, and the handling characteristics expected from a serious performance suspension.
The heart of the 041720DS system is Detroit Speed's patented no-bind Swivel-Link design. Combined with tuned high-durometer rubber bushings, the links can articulate smoothly and quietly without relying on heim joints that can wear and become noisy. The Swivel-Links also allow pinion angle and wheelbase adjustments without removing the links from the vehicle. A long horizontal track bar provides precise lateral rear axle location during hard cornering, while the suspension links are finished in black powder coat for durability. This universal kit does not include shocks or springs. Detroit Speed recommends determining the vehicle's ride height before selecting the appropriate shocks and spring rate for the application.

FAQs
What vehicles does DSE 041720DS fit?
041720DS is a universal X-Gen QUADRALink system rather than a vehicle-specific kit. Detroit Speed designed this non-staggered version for full-frame chassis applications, so compatibility and installation requirements must be evaluated for the individual build.
Are shocks and springs included with DSE 041720DS?
No. Detroit Speed does not include shocks or springs with 041720DS. This allows the proper shock and spring combination to be selected after the vehicle's ride height and application requirements are established.
What is the advantage of Detroit Speed's Swivel-Link design?
The patented Swivel-Link technology allows the suspension to articulate smoothly without binding while using tuned high-durometer rubber bushings instead of heim joints. It also allows pinion angle and wheelbase adjustments without unbolting the links from the vehicle.
