DSE QuadraLink Rear Suspension Kit - 3in Axle - Single-Adjustable Shocks (041722-SDS) - 1982 - 1992 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Upgrade your 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird with the Detroit Speed QUADRALink Rear Suspension Kit and replace the factory torque-arm configuration with a performance-focused 4-link system engineered for improved handling, rear axle control, and suspension tunability. Detroit Speed designed the QUADRALink with no-compromise suspension geometry and independently adjustable links, giving third-generation F-Body owners a serious foundation for street, autocross, road course, and pro-touring performance.
The 041722-SDS configuration is engineered for rear axle housings with 3-inch axle tubes and includes single-adjustable shocks with Detroit Tuned valving. An installed adjustment knob provides convenient rebound adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune shock response while maintaining excellent street ride quality. Upper and lower links incorporate Detroit Speed's Swivel-Link technology for smooth suspension articulation, while an adjustable track bar with cross-axis pivot bushings provides precise lateral axle control. The system adds upper link mounts to the stock unibody structure and relocates the lower links on the axle with adjustable adapter brackets, creating a comprehensive rear suspension upgrade built around the demands of a performance-driven third-generation Camaro or Firebird.
