BMR Suspension Control Arm Reinforcement Braces (RB002R) - 1968-1972 GM A-Body
Eliminate rear chassis flex, launch harder, and significantly reduce wheel hop in your 1968-1972 GM A-Body with a set of Red Control Arm Reinforcement Braces (RB002R) from BMR Suspension. Under heavy acceleration or hard cornering loads, the stamped-steel sections of the original factory frame can deflect and bend. This unwanted movement alters your vehicle's rear suspension geometry, leading to unpredictable handling and lost traction. BMR’s reinforcement braces solve this issue by securely tying the inner upper control arm frame mounts directly to the lower control arm frame mounts, strengthening these critical high-stress areas.
These heavy-duty braces are constructed from high-quality, 1.00-inch diameter, 0.156-inch wall DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) steel tubing. Precision MIG-welded for maximum structural integrity, they are engineered to withstand the extreme loads of high-horsepower street performance, drag strip launches, and road course handling applications. BMR has designed these braces with a specialized center adjuster, allowing you to perfectly adjust pre-tension and ease the installation process on older frames that may have shifted over time. This design ensures you maximize chassis rigidity without sacrificing ride quality or increasing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) levels. Finished in a highly durable, brilliant red powdercoat, this kit comes complete with high-strength Grade 8 mounting hardware. Proudly designed and manufactured in the USA!
