UMI Performance 2080-275-B Watts Link Rear Suspension Lateral Locator for F-Body

The UMI Performance 2080-275-B Watts Link is a premium rear suspension lateral locating system engineered for 3rd and 4th Gen F-body solid axle applications. Laser-cut for precision and boxed for exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, this system gives performance and handling enthusiasts the ideal combination of lateral axle location and roll center height adjustability. Built entirely in-house using USA-sourced materials and race-proven on UMI's own 1999 Camaro, the 2080 series Watts Link sets the benchmark for solid axle rear suspension performance.

Key Features:

• Race-proven design developed and validated on UMI's own competition vehicle
• Black powder coat finish (also available in red powder coat)
• Total system weight of 30 lbs with only 10 lbs of unsprung weight
• 2.5" roll center adjustment range (factory minus 2.5") for fine-tuned handling balance
• Compatible with factory axle and 3" diameter aftermarket axles
• Axle clamps remain stationary during adjustment to maintain parallelism throughout the adjustment process
• Boxed frame construction ensures superior strength, reliability, and installation accuracy
• Clears factory rear end, 12-Bolt, Hawks 8.8, S60, and many others — note: may not clear rear ends with back bracing
• Sliding propeller mount with robust locking system for easy roll center adjustment without over-tightening
• Industry-leading exhaust clearance — clears most exhaust systems within a 5" clearance diameter, including most large single over-the-axle and many dual pipe systems
• Bulletproof Delrin bushings with castle nut and cotter pin arrangement for long service life and reliability
• UMI-built aluminum sleeves allow on-car lateral location adjustment while the bracket system secures the opposite end
• Slotted design enables easy parallelism adjustment and smooth travel across the full 2.5" adjustment range
• Built entirely in-house using USA-sourced materials

Important Installation Note: This kit requires aftermarket sway bar clamps on the rear axle, such as UMI Part # 2244. These clamps space the rear sway bar downward to provide proper clearance for the Watts Link axle clamps. A minimum of 1.125" of spacing is required between the axle tubes and the rear sway bar.

The UMI 2080-275-B Watts Link is the ideal upgrade for any serious F-body build, delivering precise axle location, broad rear end compatibility, and the durability needed for both street and track use.
