DSE Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms (042304DS) - 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro
Take flex and unwanted alignment movement out of your fifth-gen Camaro's rear suspension with the Detroit Speed Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms. Designed for 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro applications, part number 042304DS replaces the stock stamped-steel lower control arms with substantially stronger boxed HSLA steel components. The result is a more rigid foundation for the rear suspension, helping improve handling, traction, and suspension control when your Camaro is pushed beyond ordinary street driving.
Detroit Speed goes beyond simply making the arms stronger. High-durometer polyurethane bushings replace the soft factory rubber bushings to reduce suspension deflection, while the adjustable design allows the factory eccentric adjuster to be eliminated using the included eccentric eliminator washers. This is especially valuable on performance-driven Camaros because the factory eccentric can slip and create unwanted changes to alignment settings. The kit also includes ride height sensor brackets and the required mounting bolts for those brackets.

Fitment Note: Detroit Speed 042304DS is a direct replacement for FE4/FE5-equipped vehicles. Detroit Speed identifies FE4 as the 2012-2015 Camaro SS V8 suspension and FE5 as the 2012-2015 Camaro ZL1 V8 suspension. These lower control arms can also be used with the appropriate FE4/FE5-style rear sway bar and end-link arrangement when upgrading vehicles originally equipped with other suspension packages. The 042304DS lower control arms are also required by Detroit Speed when adapting its later-style rear sway bar arrangement to applicable 2010-2011 Camaros.
FAQs
Why upgrade to Detroit Speed 042304DS rear lower control arms?
The stock Camaro lower control arms are stamped steel and use relatively soft rubber bushings. Detroit Speed replaces them with stronger boxed HSLA steel arms and high-durometer polyurethane bushings to reduce suspension deflection and improve handling, traction, and rear suspension performance.
How does Detroit Speed 042304DS help prevent unwanted alignment changes?
The adjustable lower control arms allow the factory eccentric adjuster to be eliminated using the supplied eccentric eliminator washers. Detroit Speed notes that the factory eccentric is prone to slipping, which can cause unwanted changes to alignment settings.
Will Detroit Speed 042304DS fit every 2010-2015 Camaro suspension package?
The arms are a direct replacement for FE4/FE5-equipped vehicles. They can also be used when converting Camaros with other suspension packages to the appropriate FE4/FE5-style rear sway bar and end-link configuration. Verify the complete rear suspension combination when performing a sway bar conversion.
