Hey everyone, The Pfadt Rear Trailing Arm is now complete and in-stock! We have had a lot of interest in this product, and its finally available!

This direct replacement trailing arm, is part of our ongoing effort to provide well engineered solutions to Camaro suspension shortcomings. We highly believe that taking this iterative design approach, and putting in analysis time on our designs to come up with a refined component, is what gives us our advantages over the competition.

Our new Pfadt trailing arm sets itself apart from other offerings. Take a look below.

Designing this part to be both lighter weight and higher strength then the factory component proved to be rather difficult, but was well worth the time involved, as we feel it resulted in the best replacement trailing arm on the market.

Here are some details:
300% strength increase in tension and compression
65% reduction in deflection
20% weight reduction each, including bushings (take a look at the comparison pictures!)
Grease fitting for easy lubrication
Polyurethane trailing arm bushing kit is included
Powder coated silver

Please feel free to give us feedback on this item. We are looking forward to hearing what you think, and please give us a call/PM in regards to pricing. Thanks guys!

Makes the stock piece look like it was designed by cavemen. Plus 4lbs in weight is more than I was expecting. Great looking product. As long as its priced competitively it should sell well.

TeddyP25 · 03-09-2010, 08:36 PM

Any work on toe links from you guys?

Thanks! Was there supposed to be a "." in front of the "4lbs" in your comment? each arm saves .47 lbs. The scale units is grams.

BUMBLEB · 03-10-2010, 08:57 AM

Very nice PFADT Im on top of it will place order today

IPS Brandon · 03-10-2010, 10:14 AM

These take about an hour to install with hand tools, and a jack and jack stands, they are an very simple an easy install, but will have instructions.

As for toe links I believe there will be a product here as well.

As for our commitment to have these great parts available to the members here with free freight, we have already began to stock these peices, as well as the new strut braces, and end links. PM me for any special offers we may be running, and or if you have any questions!

These are a great piece!

Regards

No worries! I just wanted to make sure we weren't promoting some sort of "magic" arm that is lighter than air!

FASST 1 · 03-10-2010, 01:17 PM

For those of us not in the know can you tell me the benefits of installing these...other than than the huge weight reduction.
