Quad shocks ??
do they do any kind of dampening or affect ride quality at all? or are they just for the purpose of wheel hop? i did search on this question and could not find my answer

im pretty sure they were for wheel hop but arent very affective at all, a good set of control arms will fix wheel hop

Alright cuz right now the control arms are stock..and the quad shocks aren't there, so I figured they might have something to do with absorbing bumps or at least helping absorb the defects in the road

they are for lateral damping on the road...
you dont need them but if you want to improve handling install some good upper/lower control arms and problem solved... |

ok well the car does run kind of rough in the rear, i have eibach pro kit lowering springs and brand new gabriel front struts and rear shocks, its still rides way better than it did with the stock shocks but i think the quads should help soften it up some in the rear
