Quad shocks


Can I remove the quad shocks without sacraficing daily driving. I know I could if I get some lca's, but will it hurt anything now?

Yes you can. The worst thing you will experience is possibly wheel hop if you get too deep in the throttle.

Alright, that's good because one of them is ocassionally rubbing my 315 under hard deceleration and sometimes during right turns.

No, I removed them completely.. No more rubbing problems for the 315's.

just a thought but is or was it rubbing because of weak bushings in your trailing arms?

Once you have upper and lower control arms you can ditch the Quad shocks. The ywill be no longer needed.

seeing the stock control arms flex so much.(makes wheel hop) aftermarket ones dont)( no need for quad shock)
