![]() When combined with the tubular rear cross member the trailing arms place the coil overs to the rear of the axle for better motion ratio and damping control while providing additional height adjustment via the movable lower coil over mounts. The new strut rods utilize Teflon lined heim joints which are repositioned on the axle end to maximize suspension geometry and provide adjustability without needing to be removed. The rear trailing arm is outfitted with a rubber bushing in the standard configuration to mitigate NVH, while a bearing option is offered that provides the maximum in handling performance. The rear suspension system utilizes an offset trailing arm with a “trussed” design which allows maximum tire width while providing the utmost in strength. These spindles are STEEL, the strongest ones in the industry. Pivot points are determined by the ball joints on the spindles and bushing locations on the frame, not the control arms. Different from the factory design, it yields a better camber change during suspension movement. RideTech (tall) spindles – It is called a TALL Spindle because the upper ball joint is raised 1-1/2″. We use a compression ball joint in a compression application and a tension ball joint in a tension application (just like the factory engineered it) to prevent failures Shock mounts swaybar mounts, steering stops are built in…Ĭomponent mounts are designed in, not an afterthought.To ensure no binding during extreme suspension travel ![]() The added benefit when replacing control arms is new bushings and ball joints. Rear Set Non-Adjustable Duntov Racing Shocks. Front Set Non-Adjustable Duntov Racing Shocks. Install them and forget them, as they will work for the typical 2800 lb vintage Corvette club racecar. StrongArm tubular control arms not only improve suspension geometry and handling, they also make installation even easier. We have tested and have run these shocks right out of the box. ![]() New billet aluminum steering arms are supplied that correct the ackerman which results in a vehicle with amazing turn in and steering feel. The TruTurn system reduces bumpsteer to under 0.060” and increases steering response by relocating the inner tie rods and replacing the outer tie rods with Teflon lined heim joints. Up front the task was to increase camber gain and minimize bump steer.īy utilizing the Ridetech “tall drop” spindle and tubular StrongArm control arms with Delrin bushings the ride height was lowered two inches, camber gain was increased to match the requirements of modern tires, the ball joints were updated to a modern style and relocated for increased caster and the correct angle for the lower stance, while the self lubricating Delrin bushings keep things where they should be without required maintenance. Replaces all 16 control arm bushings and includes new 4130 chromoly trunnions.The New Corvette system offers many advantages over the OEM suspension system… The engineers have put their heart and soul into fabricating a complete suspension design that is a direct bolt in to the c2 and c3 corvettes. Reduction in deflection creates a more consistent, predictable handling. This bushing designed to eliminates control arm shift, common with factory bushings.
