Ridetech Performance 4-Link Coilover Kit - 2015-2026 Ford F-150
Upgrade your 2015-2026 Ford F-150 with the Ridetech Performance 4-Link Coilover Kit, a complete high-performance lowering system engineered for improved traction, adjustability, handling, and power transfer. Designed for serious street trucks, performance builds, and drag race applications, this system combines Ridetech's front performance eye-to-eye coilovers with a 4-link rear suspension conversion that replaces the factory leaf springs with a true coilover-based setup.
The front coilovers provide an adjustable 1.5-inch to 4-inch drop from factory ride height, while the rear 4-link system can be configured with either a No-Notch setup for up to a 5-inch rear drop or a C-Notch configuration for up to a 7-inch drop. This flexibility allows F-150 owners to tailor ride height, stance, and suspension geometry around their specific build goals.
Ridetech's 4-link design greatly improves control over rear suspension geometry by allowing adjustment of both instant center and anti-squat values. With a tuning range from 50% to 230%, the system gives high-horsepower F150 owners significantly more control over how the truck transfers weight and puts power to the pavement. This makes it especially well suited for modified street trucks and drag-oriented builds where traction and launch consistency are critical.
The system is available with HQ or TQ coilovers depending on the level of shock tuning desired. HQ coilovers feature 24-position rebound adjustment and ride height adjustment, while TQ triple-adjustable coilovers add separate high-speed compression, low-speed compression, and low-speed rebound control for motorsport applications. Ridetech coilover shocks utilize Fox Factory monotube technology for responsive, tunable suspension performance.

Available Suspension Configurations
The Ridetech Performance 4-Link Coilover Kit can be configured to match the intended use of your F-150. Select the appropriate drivetrain, 4-link configuration, and shock package based on your ride height and performance goals.
- No-Notch 4-Link: Accommodates up to a 5-inch rear drop without requiring a frame notch.
- C-Notch 4-Link: Allows up to a 7-inch rear drop and requires frame cutting.
- HQ Coilovers: 24-position rebound adjustable with adjustable ride height.
- TQ Coilovers: Triple-adjustable design for motorsport applications with high-speed compression, low-speed compression, and low-speed rebound adjustment.
Performance 4-Link Design
The Ridetech 4-Link replaces the factory multi-leaf spring arrangement with dedicated suspension links and separate coilovers. By separating rear axle positioning from vehicle load support, the system eliminates many of the compromises found in a traditional leaf spring suspension. The result is increased articulation, improved suspension control, and substantially more tuning capability for high-performance applications.
Adjustable instant center and anti-squat settings ranging from 50% to 230% allow the rear suspension geometry to be tailored to the truck's horsepower level, tire combination, track conditions, and intended use. For F150 builds producing serious power, this adjustability can help improve traction and consistency when launching the truck.
Towing & Heavy Load Applications
For lowered F-150 trucks that still need additional towing or heavy-load capability, Ridetech recommends selecting a rear ShockWave air suspension configuration and pairing it with a RidePro E5 air suspension control system. This provides additional load support while retaining the benefits of the Ridetech 4-link suspension design.

Wheel & Tire Note: The system is designed to accommodate popular drag-spec wheel and tire combinations. Ridetech tested a development truck with 315/50R17 rear tires. This type of setup is especially well suited for modified 2WD and 4WD F-150 trucks producing approximately 700-1000 WHP that need additional traction and improved suspension geometry to get out of the hole effectively.
Exhaust Note: The adjustable panhard bar is designed to install around the factory spare tire and clear single-side exhaust systems. Trucks equipped with factory or aftermarket dual exhaust may require a lower crossover-style exhaust for proper clearance.
Configuration Note: Final ride height capability and shock adjustment depend on the selected drivetrain, No-Notch or C-Notch 4-Link configuration, and HQ or TQ coilover package.
