The RRS bolt-in 3-Link features better geometry than any factory four-link set-up. This superior geometry results in eliminated roll under-steer, accurate turn-in and superior steady-state cornering, which makes the car more neutrally balanced and endows it with more predictable handling.
Bolt-In 3-Link Rear Suspension
For performance applications, the RRS 3-Link system increases chassis beaming and torsion rigidity for faster suspension reaction time (for better feedback), greater torque handling capacity, optimum torque transference to the chassis and precise control over differential movements. It also allows wheels with up to a 5½-inch offset to be used.
Best of all, the modular design incorporates generous user-adjustable settings including; ride height, damper tuning, pinion angle, lateral differential location and roll centre height (for fine-tuning the vehicle’s handling characteristics). All of which results in better traction (for improved acceleration and braking) along with outstanding cornering ability.
The RRS Advantage
- Superior ride & outstanding cornering ability.
- Drastically improved suspension geometry.
- Reduced roll understeer.
- User-adjustable ride height.
- Adjustable damper tuning.
- Eliminates dive under hard braking.
- Reduces rear-end squat for superior acceleration.
- Neutral handling characteristics make the vehicle a pleasure to drive.
- Able to handle high torque loads.
- Improved stability of chassis.
- Bolted in, no cutting or welding.
In-Depth RRS Trans-Am 3-Link Benefits
- As the factory leaf spring system compresses, the differential housing can move forward as much as 60mm.
- When cornering (i.e. one side down one side up), this moves one side further forward than the other – which induces roll under-steer.
- The RRS 3-Link is designed to limit this fore/aft movement of the differential housing to 15mm (throughout its travel) which substantially minimizes roll under-steer.
- The extremely torque arm the RRS 3-Link boasts drastically improves the suspension geometry over the horribly wrong factory leaf spring set-up.
- The RRS 3 Link rear suspension system boasts dramatically improved suspension geometry over the inferior factory leaf spring set up.
- The superior geometry of the RRS 3 Link results in a drastically reduced roll under-steer, accurate turn in and firm flat cornering.
- The RRS 3 link makes the handling of the car more neutrally balanced and endows the car with predictable handling.
- The RRS 3 Link system increases chassis beaming and torsion rigidity for faster suspension reaction time allowing instantaneous feedback.
- RRS has designed the torque arm and cross member to handle up to 1000ft/lbs of torque
- User adjustable settings including ride height, shock damper tuning, pinion angle, lateral differential location and roll centre height
- Quality chrome silicon steel springs.
- All hardware and detailed instruction supplied for easy bolt-in installation.
