Pfadt Race Engineering Rear Arm Package 1410134

This package includes both the Rear Trailing Arm and the Rear Tie Rod, plus ALL bushings. Individual descriptions below

The Pfadt 2010 Camaro Rear Trailing Arms were developed using the latest analysis software which enabled us to increase strength by 106% while simultaneously reducing mass by 17%. The decrease in trailing arm mass allows the suspension to react more quickly to the changing road surface keeping the tire in contact with the road to increase traction. Through further analysis and testing we were able to achieve a 32% reduction deflection which helps decrease wheel hop and increase traction.

Using the same tools and procedures for the Pfadt 2010 Camaro Rear Tie Rods we were able to increase strength 136% while simultaneously keeping mass at a drastic minimum (lighter than OEM w/ bushings). Same principles apply to the Tie Rod as the Trailing Arm: Keeping the mass low to allow the suspension to react more quickly to the changing road surface keeping the tire in contact with the road to increase traction. Through further analysis and testing we were able to achieve a 99.8% reduction deflection which helps decrease wheel hop and increase traction even further.

Included with this kit is our leading edge Trailing Arm Bushing Kit and Rear Tie Rod Bushing Kit. Utilizing lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum sleeves that are hard anodized to create incredible surface hardness and microscopic pores to hold our special grease. These sleeves are then Teflon coated to further reduce friction. This is then coupled with our graphite impregnated polyurethane bushing which uses deep grease grooves to hold and continuously re-lubricate the surfaces for long and quiet operation. The result is an ultra lightweight, ultra-low friction joint that is 42% lighter than the OE bushing and more durable then ever before. This kit includes the bushing for both the trailing arm and also the upright for a complete performance trailing arm upgrade.

The final arms are the result of four stages of precision manufacturing; CNC machining of the bushing housing, Laser cutting of the intricate panels, CNC bending and TIG welding to finish the assembly. All of this is accomplished right here in the USA.

"I bought this package in hopes to cure my huge wheel hop problem on my m6 s/c camaro. In short problem solved with better than expected results.

Thanks to PFADT my car now keeps the tires stuck to the ground even with some violent launches. The car also no longer wants to slide the rear end around off full throttle starts.

Everyone who has seen them when I am swapping tires loves the look of these and wants to know if they are made for thier car as well lol. In short these products are a must have for the 2010+ camaros for any racing setup."

"Some of the best money I ever spent. Install was simple other than dealing with one factory bushing removal on lower knuckle. Results fantastic with virtually no effect to ride quality. Have yet to launch it hard, but have pushed the twisties a bit. Bites in and feels much better as long as I don't overrun traction conditions. Still running stock shoes. Definitely made it more fun to drive. I will admit its not all I have done. I do believe it was a very significant set of components in my attempt to create my ideal/affordable drivers car. Goal is great handling to take on any track desire I may have, with a respectable showing and yet daily drive if I wish. Keep it fun I say. I strive to maintain decent cabin comfort and noise levels, all my mods comply with no issues. Thanks again to Pfadt, Chase, and Apex for such wonderful offerings and service. "
