Overview

Ridetech 1973-74 Nova Air Suspension Systems

Ridetech 1973-74 air suspension systems fit a variety of vehicles—including Chevy Nova, Pontiac Ventura, Buick Apollo, and Oldsmobile Omega models. These packages allow you to achieve that ultra-low show stance and feature several components that will dramatically improve the suspension geometry to give your classic muscle car modern drivability. Each system includes front and rear HQ or TQ Series Shockwaves, upper and lower Strongarms, tall spindles, bolt-on 4-Link and front MUSCLEBar. Order the model recommended for your application.

Additional product details:

* Tall spindles will induce more negative camber gain to maximize tire contact patch during cornering. They also offer a 2 in. pin drop which allows for the use of longer shocks, creating more suspension travel
* Upper Strongarms feature corrected ball joint angles for the tall spindles. The upper ball joints have been moved back to allow for additional caster setting to improve high-speed stability and steering feel. Offset slugs are also available for additional caster. Injection-molded Delrin® bushings with 13 percent PTFE are used to reduce deflection and stiction
* Lower Strongarms feature a double sheer lower mount for increased strength. Ridetech also dropped the lower shock mount to increase suspension travel and moved the lower ball joint forward to increase caster settings while keeping the wheel centered in the wheel opening. Injection-molded Delrin® bushings with 13 percent PTFE are used to reduce deflection and stiction
* Shockwaves utilize an impact-forged aluminum body and monotube design to deliver excellent ride quality and handling. They allow fine-tuning of the ride quality and handling; the rebound knob is located at the top of the shock for under-hood access
* Front sway bar reduces body roll and creates room for wider front tires. Includes billet aluminum frame straps (anodized black) and low friction bushings
* Bolt-on 4-Link greatly improves traction, handling, and ride quality. Installation does not require any major modifications to the floor pan and requires only minimal welding to the axle tube. Works with mini-tubs. 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 race track

(Noe: Some 1973-1974 cars have a different shape frame rail and require kit number 11260297. See instruction manual for identification details.)
