SPL Parts Adjustable Rear Traction Arm Set (Dogbones)
Part #: SPL RTR Z34D
Overview
The SPL Parts Adjustable Rear Traction Arm Set, commonly known as dogbones, is designed to enhance the rear suspension geometry of your vehicle. Crafted specifically for performance-oriented drivers and enthusiasts, these traction arms replace the stock rubber bushings with high-quality components that improve stability and handling. Ideal for those seeking more predictable rear suspension behavior during aggressive driving, the adjustable design allows for fine-tuning of bumpsteer characteristics, ensuring optimal alignment and response under various driving conditions. Made from durable materials, these traction arms are built to withstand the rigors of spirited driving while maintaining precise control and reliability.
Key Features
This set offers several key features that support improved suspension performance:
- Constructed with gun-drilled 2024 aluminum center links for lightweight strength and heat dissipation
- Adjustable length to fine-tune rear suspension geometry and bumpsteer
- Elimination of stock rubber bushings for reduced compliance and more direct feedback
- Designed to withstand high loads and aggressive driving conditions
- Precision-machined components for a perfect fit and consistent operation
- Corrosion-resistant finishes for long-lasting durability
Construction & Design
The traction arms feature a robust aluminum center link that is gun drilled for weight reduction and enhanced heat management. The adjustable design incorporates high-strength hardware and precision machining to ensure a secure fit and reliable performance.
