Hi,
The quad shocks are on the rear because of the large oval soft rubber bushing in the lower control arm. On acceleration the rear will move fore and aft and create wheel hop with the bushing. The quad shock dampens that movement.
If you replace the control arms with ones with poly bushings in them, then you don't need the quad shocks, take them off as they will do nothing.
Perry.
