RideTech Adjustable Panhard Bar and Lowering Block Kits

RideTech adjustable panhard bar and lowering block kits include a full-length adjustable panhard bar and lowering blocks. These kits will allow you to secure your axle in place for more predictable handling, while the lowering blocks are designed to help reduce ride height for more stable cornering. Incorporating the panhard bar mount into the lowering block allows for the use of a longer bar and corrects the bar geometry to minimize lateral axle movement and allows the axle to be centered at a lowered ride height. This also lowers the roll center to reduce body roll. The patented 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!

RideTech RQ-S Series Shocks

RideTech offers RQ-S Series shocks for a variety of applications, including many Dodge, Plymouth, Buick, and Cadillac cars and trucks from 1965 and up. They feature a 1.5 in. steel body and monotube design for easy installation and superior performance. With rebound adjustability, they deliver precise tunability, ensuring an unparalleled driving experience and optimal control on road or track. Shock absorbers are without a doubt the brains of your suspension. Nothing influences how your car rides and handles more than its shock absorbers. Their primary function is to control the oscillations of your vehicle's springs, thereby keeping your tires in contact with the road. To best accomplish that objective, RideTech shocks utilize a monotube design which allows for a larger piston and more precise valving. That superior design takes advantage of better damping and reliability over a conventional twin-tube shock design. Ridetech RQ-S shocks include 24-position rebound adjustability, heavy-duty half-inch shock shafts, and carry best-in-industry factory support. Features and benefits: * Steel construction provides durability * Monotube design provides superior damping control, thanks to larger piston and precise valving * 24-position rebound adjustability allows you to dial in the rebound responsiveness of each corner of your ride * Heavy-duty 1/2 in. shock shafts serve to combat against deflection and bending
