BMR Suspension Rear Suspension Upgrade Kit Red (RSK032R) - 1982-2002 GM F-Body
Eliminate rear axle flex, minimize performance-robbing wheel hop, and add incredible cornering consistency to your Third or Fourth Generation GM F-Body with a Rear Suspension Upgrade Kit from BMR Suspension. Factory stamped-steel lower control arms and Panhard rods, paired with soft rubber bushings, deflect significantly under load. Instead of directing your engine's power straight to the tires, these stock components absorb energy, resulting in violent wheel hop, erratic cornering, and rear axle misalignment. This hybrid suspension package combines BMR's heavy-duty non-adjustable lower control arms (TCA001) and matching on-car adjustable Panhard rod (PHR002) to deliver unyielding structural strength and precise rear-axle centering.
Every RSK032R kit is proudly designed and manufactured in the USA from heavy-duty DOM steel tubing. The non-adjustable lower control arms are constructed from massive 1.625-inch (1-5/8") diameter, 0.120-inch wall tubing, providing maximum resistance to bending under the hardest drag racing launches. The matching on-car adjustable Panhard rod is built from heavy-duty 1.25-inch diameter, 0.120-inch wall DOM steel tubing and features an integrated center-mounted adjuster with left and right-hand threads. This design allows you to easily center your rear axle under the vehicle using simple hand tools while the part is still bolted in place.
To deliver an incredibly responsive driving feel without sacrificing ride quality, both the control arms and the Panhard rod are equipped with greasable, 95-durometer polyurethane bushings. These high-performance bushings feature an internally fluted design that channels grease directly to the outer thrust surfaces, keeping them fully lubricated and ensuring quiet, reliable operation. This polyurethane formulation balances street-driving comfort and track performance, easily handling heavy drag racing launches and hard cornering while absorbing harsh road noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). Completed with zinc-coated inner sleeves and a durable, brilliant red powder coat finish, this direct bolt-on upgrade is built to perform and last.
