TRZ Motorsports Tubular Front Control Arms - Uppers Only (1970 - 1981 Camaro / Firebird & 1975 - 1979 Nova) - 318-PRO-Uppers
PRO Series Tubular Upper Control Arms for 2nd-Gen F-Body & Late Nova
The TRZ Motorsports 318-PRO-Uppers are high-strength tubular upper control arms designed for 1970 - 1981 Camaro, 1970 - 1981 Firebird, and 1975 - 1979 Chevrolet Nova. Built from TIG-welded chrome-moly tubing, these arms deliver the rigidity, weight savings, and alignment stability required in serious drag racing builds.
As part of the TRZ PRO Series, these uppers use chrome-moly rod-ends attached to precision-machined billet cross-shafts, providing exceptional adjustability and long-term durability under hard launches and sustained track use. The integrated travel limiters allow you to fine-tune upward suspension extension for improved weight transfer on launch.
When combined with TRZ lower control arms (stock-spring or coilover), the complete system allows for 6 - 7 degrees of positive caster. Uppers or lowers alone cannot achieve this full caster range and may result in camber/caster limitations without the full matched set.
Important: All TRZ tubular A-arms are designed for drag racing only. They do not feature sway bar tabs and are not intended for street-driven use.
