Really the quad shocks can be removed if after-market control arms and installed with better bushings. This comes from first hand experience. I had major wheel hop when I installed my 3.73 rear over the 2.73 rear. Once I replaced the control arms, the wheel hop was just about non existent.

Sorry I wasnt thinking staight earlier. I meant control arms, not gears!
