Pontiac Tempest Parts & Accessories

Explore Pontiac Tempest parts for a handling project, brake conversion or axle repair. Compare UMI springs and control arms, QA1 handling packages and Ridetech steering components with Baer and Wilwood brake references. Choose a targeted change or plan a coordinated project for your Tempest’s exact year and chassis.

Springs, Arms and Handling Packages

Factory-height spring references and lowering options address different stance goals. Adjustable control arms, sway bars and coil-over packages offer other levels of chassis work. Compare spring specification, damper adjustment and package contents; some QA1 handling or drag kits explicitly exclude shocks. Confirm exact year and platform coverage before combining components.

Steering and Brake Conversions

Ridetech linkage, spindle and bracket references affect how the steering and brake parts work together. Baer and Wilwood packages require the compatible spindle, hub, hydraulics and wheel clearance. A smaller service repair may instead call for a hose, bushing or drum component, each with its own detailed application.

Rear-Axle and Chassis Service

Eaton differential and Yukon internal or axle references specify different component scopes. Select the assembly or service piece required for the installed housing, ratio and splines. Whiteline Tempest dust-boot references illustrate another focused repair: a protective boot should be selected for the actual joint rather than treated as a complete ball-joint assembly.

Choose Your Part

• Choose the Tempest year and the chassis, brake or axle goal.
• Identify the installed steering, brake and driveline equipment.
• Compare complete contents and supporting parts for the chosen project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I choose Tempest parts without the model year?

No. Use exact year and chassis coverage for every component.

Do all handling and drag kits include shocks?

No. Some current references exclude shocks; check the complete package.

What should I review when changing spindles and brakes?

Confirm steering, hub, caliper, hydraulic and wheel-clearance compatibility together.

Is a dust boot a complete ball joint?

No. A boot is a protective service component requiring the correct joint application.

How should I select a differential or axle service part?

Identify the housing, ratio and spline count, then choose the exact assembly or internal component the repair requires.
