DSE QuadraLink Rear Suspension Kit - 3in Axle - Without Coilovers (041729DS) - 1982 - 1992 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Upgrade the rear suspension of your 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird with the Detroit Speed QUADRALink Rear Suspension Kit. Designed for aftermarket rear axle housings with 3-inch axle tubes, DSE 041729DS eliminates the factory torque-arm configuration and replaces it with a performance-focused 4-link system engineered around no-compromise suspension geometry. All suspension links are independently adjustable, giving third-generation F-Body builders greater control over suspension setup while creating a strong foundation for improved handling and rear axle control.
Detroit Speed equips the 041729DS QUADRALink with its Swivel-Link technology in both the upper and lower links. The kit adds upper link mounts to the stock unibody structure and relocates the lower links on the axle using adjustable adapter brackets. Upper link axle brackets for 3-inch axle tubes are included, while a Detroit Speed adjustable track bar with cross-axis pivot bushings provides controlled lateral axle location. This version is sold without coilovers, allowing the suspension to work with stock-style coil springs and shocks or be paired with the Detroit Speed Rear Coilover Kit or Drop Springs for a more performance-focused setup.
