Fits:
-
Chevrolet:
- 1968-1974 Chevy II and Nova
Complete System Includes:
- Tall 2" Drop Spindles:
- The Ridetech spindle is a heavy-duty forging that is approximately 1.75" taller, ball joint-to-ball joint, than the OEM spindle. This basic geometry change increases the camber gain during suspension compression, allowing the tire to lean into the turn instead of away from the turn. The Ridetech spindle also has a pin height that is 2" higher than the OEM spindle. This means that your car will sit 2" lower than it would with the OEM spindle. For use with Disc Brakes.
- Front Upper and Lower StrongArms:
- What says "performance" more than a set of tubular control arms! After all of the time and effort expended on your ride, you definitely can’t let your stamped OEM control arms detract from all that work. Finish your suspension off with these new tubular control arms. Built with all of the care and experience you have come to expect from us, these tubular control arms are a precision-engineered solution for ball joint binding and frame clearance issues that can haunt some vehicles. When you combine the performance benefits with the elegant design of these arms, there is no better choice on the market.
- Development:
- StrongArms are developed by Ridetech in Jasper, Indiana, on an actual running, driving vehicle. This allows us to properly address ALL fitment and performance issues. It also allows us to document an installation, demonstrate the installation to our sales techs, and allows ongoing evaluation of the performance of the StrongArms.
- Design:
- Ridetech think the best way to design any component is to keep it simple. That is why Strong Arms are designed with as few components as possible. The new 4-axis tubing bender allows precise, repeatable bends that no other machine can achieve. We can create elegant tubing bends that would otherwise require several separate welded components.
- Components:
- powder-coated in a satin black finish and completely assembled with ball joints and bushings. To reduce all stiction from the suspension movement, Injection Molded Delrin Bushings are used. These bushings are also impregnated with Teflon, which eliminates the need for lubrication.
- Geometry:
- Geometry of a suspension starts with the position of the frame mounts and the height of the spindle, not the shape of the control arm. However, there are a few small things in control arm design that can make a big difference in how a vehicle drives and performs.
- Ridetech creates extra caster potential by adjusting the fore-and-aft position of the ball joints. At the same time, we make sure the wheel is properly positioned in the wheel-well so your new large wheels fit like they should!
- The ball joint camber travel is re-centered to accommodate the new lowered ride height, so the ball joint doesn’t bind during extreme suspension movement.
- The perimeter of the StrongArms is contoured to allow maximum wheel clearance and turning radius.
- All shock mounts, air spring mounts, and Sway bar mounts are integrated into the design, so you don’t have to finish the engineering in order to enjoy your ride!
- StrongArms are optimized to allow proper camber adjustment at your new lowered ride height without using a large stack of shims.
- Front MuscleBar Sway Bar:
- Let's face it...the most overlooked suspension component is also one of the most important. The magic you could be missing in your suspension may be nothing more than simply adding or upgrading your sway bars! The New MUSCLEbar sway bars were developed specifically for lowered vehicles and will greatly enhance the cornering performance of your car or truck. Not to mention, they'll also make some vehicles safer at the speeds we travel on today's interstate highways. Increased bar diameters, polyurethane bushings, and appropriate attachment links all add up to a sway bar package that is designed to work correctly with your lowered car or truck and your aggressive driving style.
- Improves range of motion & eliminates binding
- Strong design prevents deformation and failure
- Positive transfer of motion through Sway bar
- OEM high-performance quality
- Front HQ Series Adjustable Coilovers:
- With the HQ Series of Coilovers, you'll get high performance handling, exceptional ride quality and the ability to adjust your car's ride height. The Ridetech CoilOvers feature 24-position rebound adjustment to help you fine tune the shocks to your driving preferences and vehicle demands. With large 1.834" pistons, heavy-duty 5/8" shafts, and impact forged bodies, HQ Series Coilovers are built to perform and made to last. They're backed by the Ridetech exclusive 1,000,001 mile warranty. Ridetech develops the shock calibrations and spring rates through thousands of cross-country test miles, on their exclusive test track and at competition events from coast to coast. Ridetech understands the suspension needs of your X-Body better than any other company. This system includes two front HQ Series Coilover shocks and two Hyperco coil springs with proper spring rate.
- Rear HQ Series Adjustable Coilovers:
- These Rear Coilovers are designed to provide the optimal ride quality and ease of installation for Ridetech Bolt-On 4-Link systems. Ridetech continues to offer today’s hot rodders the ultimate in ride quality, handling performance, technical support, and now, SIMPLICITY, with the new Ridetech Coilovers.

- Rear Bolt-on 4-Link Kit:
- Muscle cars have always been the backbone of hot-rodding and now they are hotter than ever! The problem is nobody wants to put up with the ride quality, handling, and braking technology of 40 years ago. After driving a newer car, the compromises of a standard leaf spring suspension just doesn’t cut it! Now there is a solution.
- The Ridetech Bolt-On 4-Link installs onto the OEM leaf spring mounts of your prized X-Body. No cutting, no fabrication, just four small tabs to weld to the axle for your upper bars. The ride height of your car is typically lowered by approximately 2". The ride quality is dramatically improved over stock. Instead of a wallowing soft ride, you’ll experience a crisp, controlled ride quality that will inspire more confidence for performance driving.
- The area of largest improvement is the handling and cornering performance. The system eliminates the OEM leaf spring and replaces them with a 4 link rear suspension. The 4 link bars offer more precise positioning of the rear axle to eliminate flexing and increase stability through the corners. When combined with the Ridetech Coil-Over front suspension kit, your classic muscle car can now enjoy the benefits of modern handling and ride quality technology. The R-Joint rod ends combine the best qualities of low friction movement, lateral stability, full range articulation, and quiet operation into one special bearing, that is as home on the street as it is on the racetrack!
- If you want your classic muscle car to ride and drive like a modern performance car, the Bolt-On 4-Link system is the perfect solution!
- We wouldn’t expect you to bolt on any suspension component that we haven’t thoroughly tested. Ridetech regularly uses these cars in a wide range of performance driving environments, as well as plain ol’ highway time. Our 4-Link systems have proven time and time again to provide not only ground shaking traction, but a great highway ride as well.
