This Detroit Speed Rear Speed Kit 3 is a combination of a rear coilover conversion kit, a Swivel-Link rear suspension, a rear sway bar, and adjustable track bar kits, all of which maintain your 1979-1993 Mustang's classic Fox Body style while enhancing your driving experience! Whether you're just cruising or trying to take first place on the track, this Rear Speed Kit 3 decreases driveline vibrations while increasing traction and stability. Plus, its coilover conversion features your choice of non-adjustable, single-adjustable, or double-adjustable shocks.
Features and Benefits:
- "Detroit Tuned" coilover springs/shocks
- Optimized for ride quality, handling, and ride height adjustment
- Your choice of non/single/double-adjustable shocks
- Bolt-on coilover conversion moves shocks to frame rail
- Offers strength and wheel/tire clearance
- Offers clearance for up to 3" custom exhaust system
- Bolt-on Swivel-Links rear links are stronger than factory arms
- Links eliminate bind and allow for max suspension articulations
- Laser-cut brackets compatible with original frames and axles
- Easy to adjust wheelbase/pinion angle w/o unbolting Swivel Links
- Maintains improved traction and lower driveline vibrations
- Bolt-on tubular sway bar mounts directly to the chassis and axle (more effective than factory bar)
- Bolt-on track bar (absent on stock Fox Body) adds critical link rear axle
- Track bar keeps rear axle centered and stable during hard cornering
- Improves vehicle handling by locating the rear roll center 1-1/2" below axle centerline
- 3/4" sway bar diameter
This kit's non-adjustable option features shocks with Detroit Tuned valving. The single-adjustable option adds a knob to the shocks for rebound adjustment. One step further, the double-adjustable option increases the adjustment range from low to high so you can dial into your specific needs. The included Swivel-Link rear suspension takes the place of your Mustang's loud spherical rod ends, creating a quieter ride with enhanced articulation. Plus, you'll be able to adjust the pinion angle on-ride while avoiding potential traction decrease.
This kit's sway bar connects to both the rear end housing and the frame rail, utilizing the chassis for rear axle stabilization. Combining this with a low-friction, ball-style end-link mount equals free articulation with no bind and minimized deflection during hard corners. You'll also get an adjustable track bar to keep your Fox Body's rear axle from wandering by keeping the axle centered below the chassis. As you speed up and round corners, you'll notice a better grip, giving you the confidence to hit the finish line quicker!
Additional Notes:
- A coilover conversion kit is required before installing the Swivel-Link kit as there is no spring perch on the links like on the factory arm.
- Depending on tire and mini-tub width, fuel tank modification may be required when adding a custom exhaust system.
Vehicle Fitment:
