May also need rear trailing arms £189+ VAT fark

Trailing Arms help eliminate flex from the rear suspension caused by the OEM rubber bushings. On a related note, the OEM rubber bushings are prone to failure over time as stress from engine torque breaks down the bushings. A typical symptom of bad bushings is a "clunking" in the rear suspension upon changing of direction and slow speed turns. Our competition pieces replace the stock rubber bushings with solid metal heim joints. This eliminates the suspect bushings and provides for tighter and more predictable handling. Furthermore, the arms are designed to be narrower and offset inboard to allow for greater clearance when choosing aftermarket wheels.
