What is included in the Ridetech HQ Air Suspension Kit?

This kit includes front and rear HQ Shockwaves, upper and lower StrongArms, Corvette hub spindles with caliper brackets, a Bolt-On 4-Link rear suspension, and a front sway bar. It is designed to be a comprehensive suspension upgrade.

What else do I need to complete the air suspension system?

This kit provides the core suspension components. You will need to source an air management system separately, which typically includes an air compressor, air tank, air lines, and control system for adjusting ride height.

How does the 4-Link rear suspension install?

The 4-Link rear suspension is designed as a bolt-on system. This means it can be installed without requiring welding to the rear axle, simplifying the installation process.

Product Details

This Ridetech HQ Air Suspension System gives you everything you need to completely upgrade the suspension on your 1968-1974 Nova, Acadian, or similar vehicle. You get front and rear HQ Shockwaves, which are well-built air springs with adjustable damping, paired with upper and lower StrongArms for improved control and geometry. The kit also includes Corvette hub spindles that come with integrated caliper brackets, a Bolt-On 4-Link rear suspension setup for better axle location, and a front sway bar to help reduce body roll.

The StrongArms are designed to work with the included hub spindles, which are based on Corvette components, offering a solid foundation for your front suspension. The 4-Link system is a bolt-on affair, making installation more straightforward without requiring welding for the rear axle. This comprehensive package aims to provide a significant improvement in ride quality and adjustability, allowing you to dial in the ride height and stiffness to your preference. The adjustable damping on the HQ Shockwaves lets you fine-tune the handling characteristics, whether you're cruising or looking for a more responsive feel.

When installing this kit, you'll want to ensure you have the necessary air management system (compressor, tank, lines, and controls) as it is not included. This system is designed to be a complete overhaul, giving you a modern air suspension setup on a classic platform. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance on fitting all components correctly.
