TRZ Motorsports Tubular Front Control Arms - Uppers Only (1978 - 1988 Malibu G-Body) - 319-PRO-Uppers
PRO Series Upper Control Arms for 1978 - 1988 Malibu G-Body
The TRZ Motorsports 319-PRO-Uppers are high-performance tubular upper control arms designed specifically for 1978 - 1988 Chevrolet Malibu G-Body platforms. Built from premium TIG-welded chrome-moly tubing, these uppers significantly improve strength, reduce weight, and enhance geometry for dedicated drag-racing applications.
Each upper arm uses TRZ's PRO Series rod-end attachment paired with billet cross-shafts for maximum adjustability and precision. These uppers also feature built-in travel limiters, giving racers precise control over front-end rise and weight transfer during launch.
When used together with TRZ lower control arms, the suspension is capable of achieving 6 - 7 degrees of positive caster, a major improvement over factory geometry that enhances straight-line stability. Uppers or lowers used alone will not achieve this full caster correction.
Note: TRZ A-arms are built exclusively for drag racing. They do not include sway bar tabs and are not intended for street use.
