DSE Ford 9-Inch QuadraLink Narrowed Housing - Torino Flange - Bare - 1975-1981 Camaro / Firebird - 071003DS
Build the rear suspension of your second-generation F-Body around a purpose-built performance foundation with the Detroit Speed Ford 9-inch QuadraLink Narrowed Housing. Part number 071003DS is engineered for 1975-1981 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications using the Detroit Speed QuadraLink rear suspension system. Instead of starting with a generic housing and fabricating the suspension mounts yourself, this application-specific housing arrives with the QuadraLink brackets already TIG welded in place for a strong, precise, and clean installation.
Detroit Speed builds the 071003DS around a heavy-duty round-back Ford 9-inch housing with TIG-welded 3-inch axle tubes featuring .218-inch wall thickness. Billet Torino housing ends provide a robust axle-end configuration, while an axle vent and fill and drain plugs are incorporated into the housing. It also accepts rear brake packages using a 2.5-inch offset from AP, Baer, or Wilwood. This version is supplied in a bare finish and includes the axle housing only, allowing you to select the center section, axle shafts, brakes, and supporting components that best match your power level and intended use.
