Product Description

The Ridetech 11267197 Bolt-On 4-Link replaces the factory leaf-spring rear suspension on 1968-1974 Nova-platform cars with a fully adjustable 4-link setup. The double adjustable bars let you fine-tune both upper and lower bar length for pinion angle and instant center without pulling bushings, making it easier to dial in handling once the car's back on the ground.

Installation is bolt-on at the factory leaf spring mounts and a welded cradle bridges the frame rails for the upper bar and shock mounts - no floor pan cutting required. It pairs with Ridetech coil-overs or ShockWave air springs (sold separately) and is a common upgrade for owners chasing better traction and cornering stability out of their Nova, Acadian, Ventura, Omega, or Apollo.
