Description
Rear Suspension Upgrade. The Detroit Speed Rear Suspension Speed Kit 3 for Stock Axles enhances the rear suspension performance of classic GM A-Body cars, focusing on 1968-1972 Pontiac GTO, LeMans, and Tempest models. It improves geometry and tire contact throughout suspension travel, delivering better handling and ride quality for muscle car enthusiasts seeking a modern driving experience. This kit eliminates common articulation issues by replacing noisy spherical heim joints with patented Swivel-Links that improve durability and allow easy adjustment of pinion angle and wheelbase without unbolting links from the car.
_x000D__x000D_Construction and Appearance. This suspension kit features high-quality tubular steel components built for strength and longevity. It includes tubular rear sway bars and precision-engineered springs and non-adjustable shock absorbers, all designed to integrate seamlessly with existing front suspension kits. The finish is typically a durable powder coat or painted surface to resist corrosion and maintain a clean, professional appearance under the vehicle.
_x000D__x000D_Installation. Installation is moderately challenging and requires basic mechanical knowledge but does not involve welding, drilling, or frame modifications. All necessary hardware is included, making this a straightforward bolt-on upgrade.
_x000D__x000D_Application. This kit is designed specifically for stock axle setups on 1968 through 1972 Pontiac GTO, LeMans, and Tempest models, excluding wagon applications. It maintains proper rear suspension geometry and handling characteristics in these vehicles.
