- To tell the difference between a 1-piece and 2-piece frame, look at the bottom of the main frame rail under the driver's door area. A 1-piece frame (often called the "California" frame) will be flat and smooth, while a 2-piece will have a rough weld seam right down the bottom center of the frame rail from front to rear.
Individual System Overview:
- Front Upper StrongArms feature corrected balljoint angles for taller spindles allowing additional caster, steering feel, and high-speed stability. Offset slugs are available for an additional caster. The use of injection molded Delrin bushings reduces deflection and stiction.
- Front Lower StrongArms feature a double sheer lower mount for added strength, while the lower shock mount has been lowered for an increase in suspension travel. Lower ball joints are moved forward to increase caster while also keeping the wheel centered in the wheel well. The use of injection molded Delrin bushings reduces deflection and stiction.
- HQ Series Shockwaves feature a monotube design with an impact forged aluminum body providing excellent ride quality and handling. Ride and handling can be fine-tuned with the rebound adjustment knob located at the top of the shock.
- Front MuscleBar is of a splined design to help reduce body roll and creates additional clearance for wider tires. The use of Ridetech exclusive PosiLink end links provides immediate engagement from the StrongArms to the chassis.
- Bolt-On 4-Link will improve traction, handling, and ride quality tremendously. Installations will not require any major modifications to the floor pan and only require minimal welding to the axle tube while being compatible with mini-tubs. The use of R-joint rod ends combine the best qualities of low friction movement, lateral stability, full articulation, and quiet operation.
