      The new Select Series damper from RideTech is a steel-bodied, monotube damper that offers two sets of independent internal valve stacks, which allows the user to choose between a soft “cruise” mode and a firmer “sport” mode for handling performance.
      In default mode (no power applied) the lower valving stack is engaged and will provide a compliant ride, ideal for cruising.

      When power is applied through a dash-mounted push button, the upper valve stack is engaged to firm up the damping and provide extra handling performance.
      The Select Series damper is available in coil-over, ShockWave (airspring), or as a stand-alone configuration with no surrounding spring. The damper offers superior oil control over a wide range of road and track surfaces, said the company.

      Upgrade your rear leaf spring suspension to a fully adjustable 4-link suspension with our kit. With a 4-link suspension ride height is adjustable, and the chassis can be fine tuned. A 4-link suspension also rides much smoother compared to a leaf spring suspension and eliminates wheel hop, which leads to loss of traction. Kit includes coil over shocks, crossmember, frame and axle brackets, panhard bar, parallel 4-links and all mounting hardware. * Will only work with 3” axle tubes.

      Sway Bar Kit (anti-roll bar), rear, 36" wide, but can be cut down (with a hack saw) to any length.. The bar is ľ" diameter with one end splined ľ-36. The other end of the bar is smooth. This smooth end gets pinned and welded into a coupler which attached to one of the arms. The laser-cut, 3/8" thick arms are 8" center-to-center. Formed tabs weld to the outer tube and connect the bar to the rear crossmember using the coil-over bolts. Urethane bushings insulate road vibration. Rod ends connect the arms to the tabs that weld to the rear end. Overall length is ľ" longer than the bar length, since the 3/8" arms mount outside the ends of the bar. The arms can be bent to clear the coil-overs.


      To mount the sway bar to a crossmember tube without coilover bolts, ...
