QA1 Rear Coilover Upgrade For Your 1967-’69 F-Body

You can finally get rid of those clunky leaf springs on the rear of your 1967 through 1969 Camaro or Firebird with this coilover upgrade from QA1. This triangulated four-link rear suspension is designed to improve ride quality and also allows you to dial in the car’s rear suspension for the perfect stance and performance to suit your driving style.

Whether you are looking for street performance, pro-touring excitement, or better times on the drag strip, this new triangulated four-link will allow you to tailor the handling characteristics of your F-body. You’ll also be able to achieve that perfect stance, thanks to QA1’s coilover adjustability, which provides for up to five inches of ride height adjustability.

QA1 Camaro 4-link rear suspension and coilover upgrade

This rear coilover upgrade features a triangulated four-link suspension coupled with QA1’s single, double, or four-way adjustable coilover shocks. Adjustments for ride height, pinion angle, and even the vehicle’s wheelbase are easily made via the various links designed into the system.

Another added performance benefit of ridding your ride of those aging leaf springs is the ability to fit wider wheels and tires under the vehicle. This coilover upgrade was engineered to work with both standard and mini-tubs. The system offers generous clearance for up to 11-inch-wide wheels on ’67-’68 F-bodies and 12-inch-wide wheels and 335 tires on your ’69 Camaro or Firebird. Note: Achieving maximum wheel and tire width will require mini tubs.

By prioritizing the use of wider wheels, we not only enhanced performance but also elevated the overall aesthetics. I’m pleased with what our engineers came up with and how well everything fits together. – Jesse Cowles, QA1 Product Manager

Handling, Stability, & Ride Comfort

With so much adjustability available in QA1’s coilover upgrade, you’ll be able to dial in the rear suspension’s handling and ride characteristics for improved stability when turning, braking, or accelerating. Thanks to the ease of adjustability of this coilover upgrade, you can make changes to suit your driving style and expectations perfectly. The kit also allows for integrating the entire line of QA1 coilover shocks in single, double, or four-way adjustable valving so you can tailor your level of performance expectations with the kit’s price point.

1969 Camaro

Put all your engine’s power to the pavement thanks to the coilover upgrade kit’s adjustability and the ability to put wider tires on the rear of your first-gen Camaro or Firebird.

The kit requires minimal welding and no modifications to the car’s floor pan are necessary. Once installed, adjustments are easily made to your vehicle’s ride height, pinion angle, and even the car’s wheelbase by simply tweaking the suspension’s links for the perfect settings. Like all QA1 products, this 1967 through 1969 F-body coilover upgrade is manufactured in the company’s headquarters in Lakeville, Minnesota. Also, be sure to register your new coilover upgrade to warranty your new QA1 shocks. Visit QA1’s website for more information and to register your new coilover kit purchase with QA1.
