TRZ Motorsports C5 - C6 Corvette Outlaw Front Suspension w/ Motor Mount Pads (1997 - 2013 Corvette C5 / C6) - 400-5 & MM
Complete Outlaw Front Suspension System with Motor Mount Pads for 1997 - 2013 Corvette C5/C6
The TRZ Motorsports Outlaw Front Suspension Kit w/ Motor Mount Pads is a full front-end replacement engineered for serious drag racers running a 1997 - 2013 Corvette C5 or C6. This system eliminates heavy factory components and replaces them with chrome-moly and billet aluminum parts designed for strength, adjustability, and major weight savings.
Included is a fully welded chrome-moly K-member, upper and lower A-arms with premium teflon-lined rod ends, and chrome-moly spindles compatible with Strange GT spindle-mount brakes or approved hub-style brake kits. Racers seeking maximum front-end weight reduction can upgrade to billet aluminum spindles (+$370), which fit the same brake options as the standard chrome-moly spindles.
Steering precision comes from Pinto-style rack-and-pinion mounts paired with a custom-length manual rack kit. This includes 6061 aluminum tie-rod adjusters (bump steer kit), a steering shaft, chrome-moly U-joints, and a steering column adapter. The result is lightweight, responsive steering built for straight-line stability.
This drag-only system cuts up to 95 lbs from the nose of the car and narrows track width by approximately 1 inch per side. It features 8 - 10 degrees of built-in positive caster and accepts 4? or 5? stroke coil-over shocks depending on vehicle ride height. This version includes motor mount pads, offering mounting locations for your engine setup (motor mounts themselves not included).
The spindles support Strange 5x4.75 hubs (B4154WC) or spindle-mount wheel/brake combinations from Strange (B4597WC) or TBM (TBM-001-0204). Note that Strange caliper brackets may require minor grinding for clearance. OEM C5/C6 brakes, A-arms, and steering components will not fit this kit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this kit include the full motor mounts?
No. This kit includes motor mount pads only, which provide the correct mounting locations. The actual engine mounts must be purchased separately.
Will my stock C5/C6 brake kit work with these spindles?
No. If your brake kit fits factory C5/C6 spindles, it will not fit this TRZ Outlaw spindle design. Only the listed Strange or TBM brake systems are compatible.
