Suspension Rear 450 HP or Less (Ford & GM)
"With all DMRI suspension products you get access to my experience and expert technical advise. You can talk to me (662.233.2301) as a salesman, user, designer, installer, and manufacturer. I can make my parts work while other tech persons hopefully find the right answer in a manual."

Dick

Our 5028 kits are recommended for cars with 450 horsepower or less. The basic 5028 kit has tubular chrome moly upper control arms with chrome moly double adjustable adjusters (for setting pinion angle and chassis preload for maximum traction at different tracks without removing any bolts or control arms). All of our adjusters are chrome moly with 3/4" threads and 3/4" heim joints bushed down to the correct bolt size for the strongest on the market. The more pinion angle the harder the suspension system will hit the rear tire but at a loss of horsepower to overcome the pinion angle. Therefore don’t run any more pinion angle than what your car combination needs. Adjusting chassis preload will help the car with straight line launches (not the typical GM turn to the right launch). Also fixed length tubular chrome moly lower control arms (with sway bar mounts) for rigidity, strength, and repeatable performances. Plus 3/4" plate steel no-hop bars (to change the imaginary intersection point of the upper and lower control arms if they were extended forward) which will cause the car to lift in the rear and plant the tires harder. Just as you can‘t lift 100# without putting 100# additional pressure on your feet your cars chassis can’t lift the body without pushing even harder on the tires. Our no-hop bars are shorter than other brands which are to tall and can hit the tire to hard.

Due to the fact that that the car will now lift in the rear it is also recommended that the springs are changed to our lighter weight and taller rear springs which will assist the chassis in lifting by providing stored energy in the spring. Triangulation braces (5029) are highly recommended to strengthen the crossmember that the upper control arms are fastened to. The crossmember can and probably will flex and eventually crack. As it is flexing, a 1/8” flex can cause a change in your pinion angle of approximately 1 degree. On a car with 2 degrees of pinion angle that’s a 50% loss. Don’t forget shocks. You get what you pay for. A good adjustable shock is necessary to get maximum performance and have repeatable results. If you want to get rid of that typical body roll where the drivers side front corner lifts about a foot higher than the passenger side order a DMR-5413 anti roll bar. This will help eliminate the body roll and body flex plus help plant the rear tires more evenly do to a more even load on both rear tires. Most components can be purchased separately but we do offer package discounts based upon the components purchased. We have no-hop bars available to allow the use of non GM rearend in GM cars.

9003.jpj "Need More Bite?" Suspension Manual
This technical manual on the dynamics of suspension physics by Dick Miller, suspension expert, is designed to help the reader understand the principle of why coil sprung rear wheel drive cars act the way they do under acceleration. Being armed with this knowledge the reader can then take advantage of the information to maximize their cars’ traction. This will give them an advantage their competitor may not have. If this is the only item on the order we will ship it U.S. Mail within the U.S. for $3.00 aditional.

DMR-5029 DMR-5029 Triangulation Braces (4-Speed Bars) - NHRA ACCEPTED STOCK ELIM
Triangulation braces are highly recommended to strengthen the crossmember that the upper control arms are fastened to. The crossmember can and probably will flex and eventually crack. As it is flexing, a 1/8” flex can cause a change in your pinion angle of approximately 1 degree. On a car with 2 degrees of pinion angle that’s a 50% loss. The harder the car hooks the more the flex and immediate loss of traction. Select part number at View Cart.

DMR-5030 DMR-5030 Upper Control Arms W/O No-Hop Bars - NHRA ACCEPTED STOCK ELIM
Tubular chrome moly upper control arms with chrome moly double adjustable adjusters (for setting pinion angle and chassis preload for maximum traction at different tracks without removing any bolts or control arms). The more pinion angle the harder the suspension system will hit the rear tire but at a loss of horsepower to overcome the pinion angle. Therefore don’t run any more pinion angle than what your car combination needs. Adjusting chassis preload will help the car with straight line launches (not the typical GM turn to the right launch). To use without no-hop bars or with cast iron no-hop bars. Select part number at View Cart.

DMR-5035 DMR-5035 Track Locater - NHRA ACCEPTED STOCK ELIM
Diagonal links (track locaters) to fit the lower control arms to keep the rear end centered under the car which helps the car go straighter down the track for a shorter 1/4 mile and a quicker ET. Will fit only DMRI lower control arms and the order will not be filled unless you are buying a DMR-5028 kit or DMR-5025 lower control arms.

Quantity:
DMR-5413 DMR-5413 Anti-Roll Bar Universal
If you want to get rid of that typical body roll where the drivers side front corner lifts about a foot higher than the passenger side order our universal fit anti roll bar. This will help eliminate the body roll and body flex plus help plant the rear tires more evenly do to a more even load on both rear tires. Requires minor fabricating and tig welding between the frame rails.

If you are running tail pipes you may want to add our trunk mount kit (DMR-5413-T) which allows the anti roll bar to be mounted in the trunk to the roll bar and the uprights extend down thru the rear coil spring. Comes with lower mounts that bolt to the lower spring pad perch. If you don’t have a roll bar also add our (DMR-5413-T-S) tripod mount to allow you to mount the anti roll bar in the trunk.

Quantity:
DMR-500-110 DMR-7500-110 Rear Springs
Rear springs which are lighter and taller. Both springs are the same and for use with no-hop bars. Chassis preload is set with our adjustable upper control arms. If the chassis sets at desired ride height with taller and lighter springs the springs will have stored energy and help plant the tire harder and faster. Your car with these springs should set at factory ride weight. Select part number at View Cart.

NOS-7053 NOS-7053-K-D Rear Coil Over Kit Double Adj
Rear shock mounts were not designed to hold the weight of the car up and will eventually crack and break if used for that purpose. Our NOS-7053-K-D double adjustable (one knob adjust compression and another knob adjust extension individually) rear coil over kits provide additional strengthening brackets to help prevent this from happening, moves the bottom of the shock out so a coil over spring can be added, and can be mounted in the stock shock location. These kits can be 100% bolted on for classes that require bolt on only suspension parts or they may be welded in place. Kits for most GM and Ford applications with rearends that have factory brackets for the rear of the lower control arm. NOS-7053-K-D-L will raise the rear of the car 2" +/- 1". NOS-7053-K-D-LOW will lower the rear of the car 2" +/- 1". NOS-7053-K-D-S will leave the car in the stock height +/- 1". Externally adjustable (no shock removal necessary) to change settings quickly and easily. Sold in pairs. Select sizes at View Cart. Be sure to include the car make, body style, total weight or rear end weight if possible, and engine in the ordering instructions.
