CORVETTE TRAILING ARM

Fans of second- and third-generation Corvettes rely on trailing arms for a smooth ride inside the cabin. As you drive over bumps, rocks and holes in the pavement, these devices help your suspension system adapt. Now that select C2 and C3 variants are over 40 years old, it’s a good idea to assess your stock setup for signs of deterioration.

Top Flight Automotive is the largest manufacturer of Corvette parts around the world, and we want to keep your classic ride’s suspension system in working order. We’re constantly updating our online store with Corvette trailing arm replacements to help you get from point A to point B safely. From race track driving to joy rides, trust Top Flight Automotive for everything you need to rebuild and maintain your Corvette’s trailing arms.

THE PURPOSE OF CORVETTE TRAILING ARMS

Trailing arms are common with live-axle suspension systems and independent rear-wheel setups. A trailing arm assembly fastens to your Corvette’s chassis, back axle and wheels so that tires and nearby suspension components move up and down when put to the test.

You can think of a trailing arm like a metal bar that prevents the rear axle from sliding forward or backward when your Corvette is in motion. Trailing arms came stock on C2 and C3 vehicles and act as pivot points for vertical movement.

SIGNS YOU NEED CORVETTE TRAILING ARM REPLACEMENTS

There are several indicators your Corvette trailing arms need some attention. Speak to a sales representative at Top Flight Automotive if you experience the following issues:

• You hear rattling sounds near wheels.
• There is a sudden decrease in brake performance.
• Tire tread is wearing away faster than usual.
• You feel a loss in handling control.
• Trailing arm bushings are cracked or missing.

C2 AND C3 CORVETTE NEW TRAILING ARM ASSEMBLIES

If your Corvette vehicle had a previous owner, when was the last time you checked the bushings connected to trailing arms? Ignoring maintenance in this area can cause damage to brake rotors, as bushings help to absorb friction. Fortunately, Top Flight Automotive is your source for complete C2 and C3 trailing arm assemblies by Van Steel.

All-new assemblies come equipped with bearings, rubber bushings, hand brake hardware and pre-indexed rotors. Erase wear and tear on your Corvette suspension with installations for left and right side wheels. Transfer over your existing spindle flange for a quick installation.
