QA1 5255 Upper Adjustable Trailing Arms for 1979-2004 Ford Mustang

QA1 5255 upper adjustable trailing arms upgrade the rear suspension on 1979-2004 Ford Mustang and select Mercury Capri models. These tubular arms feature spherical rod ends on the chassis end to reduce bushing bind for smoother suspension action and firmer tire contact with the road. Powder-coated gloss black they provide durable protection while allowing easy pinion angle adjustments without removal.

Key Features

  • Adjustable Design: Heavy-duty turnbuckle style lets you fine-tune pinion angle by loosening jam nuts directly on the vehicle for precise handling setup
  • Spherical Rod Ends: Chassis-side ball and socket assembly with UHMW polyethylene bushings eliminates deflection and bind during suspension travel
  • Graphite Polyurethane Bushings: Fluted greasable bushings at differential end replace soft OE rubber for reduced compliance and longer life
  • Tubular Steel Construction: 1-1/4 inch diameter 0.120 wall steel tubing cuts weight while maintaining strength against flex
  • Powder-Coated Finish: Gloss black coating resists corrosion and chips for lasting appearance under track or street conditions

Product Notes

  • Sold in pairs with all hardware included for complete replacement
  • Grease zerks on bushings allow routine maintenance for peak performance
  • Ships in protective packaging measuring 6 x 24 x 8 inches

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Bolt-in direct fit using factory mounting points no fabrication required
  • Includes rod ends jam nuts and bushings verify torque specs during install
