QA1 78-88 GM G-Body Trailing Arms Lower Adjustable

QA1 lower adjustable trailing arms center the rear axle precisely in the wheel well for 1978-1988 GM G-Body vehicles including Chevrolet Monte Carlo Buick Regal Pontiac Grand Prix Chevrolet Malibu El Camino GMC Caballero and Pontiac Bonneville. Gain up to 1 inch of adjustability to eliminate rubbing with 24-inch wheels and wide tires through simple turnbuckle lengthening or shortening. Tubular steel arms arrive black powder coated with all mounting hardware for direct bolt-on installation.

Key Features

  • Powder Coated Finish: Black powder coat resists corrosion and holds up under road and track conditions for lasting appearance
  • Bolt-On Design: Direct stock replacement with high-strength hardware for easy garage setup without fabrication
  • Tubular Steel Construction: Lightweight strong tubing cuts unsprung weight and manages high-horsepower builds
  • Wheel Fitment Solution: Centers axle to stop inner fender rubbing on lowered setups with oversized 24-inch wheels

Product Notes

  • Pair of left and right lower trailing arms for complete rear installation
  • Grease fittings on bushings for maintenance and smooth operation
  • Ships in protective packaging weighing 21.9 lbs with dimensions 42 x 8 x 6 inches
