QA1 Performance 68-72 GM X-Body Level 3 Handling Kit w/ Narrowed 9in Housing

For 1968-1972 X-body Nova owners who want to run wide tires and put down serious power, this QA1 Level 3 Handling Kit pairs a complete suspension overhaul with a narrowed QA1 9-inch rear housing.

Front Suspension

Lightweight control arms improve geometry and reduce flex over the factory pieces. QA1 MOD series 4-way adjustable coilovers let you dial in ride height and damping for street cruising or track days. The front end alone makes a dramatic difference in how the car turns in and holds a line through corners.

Rear Suspension and Housing

The real highlight here is the narrowed QA1 9-inch rear housing. The fabricated center section with 3-inch OD axle tubes supports up to 800HP, and the 31-spline axles are rated to 650HP. Standard features include powder coat, drain and fill plugs, jack pad, and all necessary hardware. The narrowed wheel mounting width of 54-3/4 inches (narrowed 2-1/2 inches per side) opens up room for mini tubs and massive tire setups -- up to 11-inch-wide wheels and 315mm tires.

Adjustable Four-Link

The optimized four-link rear eliminates wheel hop and improves both traction and handling. Front and rear sway bars and subframe connectors minimize body roll in tight corners. With 2 inches of front adjustability and -3 to +2 inches in the rear, you have a wide range to dial in the perfect stance.
