Launch your #Camaro harder and with less wheel hop with #BMR #TCA059 Lower Trailing Arms! Installation on my 2021 Camaro ZL1 with a comparison between the BMR & OEM part.
This video applies to all 3 variations of the BMR lower trailing arms for the #6thGen Camaro with only a minor tweak needed for the adjustable versions in sizing the lower trailing arms to match the OEM parts which is not done for the non-adjustable version.
From the BMR website:
Launching harder, reducing wheel hop, and adding cornering consistency to your 2016-newer Chevrolet Camaro is easy with lower trailing arms from BMR Suspension. Stock stamped steel control arms with soft rubber bushings deflect under load and absorb power instead of transferring it to the tires. BMR’s polyurethane, non-adjustable trailing arms for Camaros (TCA059) are manufactured from heavy-duty 1×1.5-inch boxed steel tubing. The open end is formed from CNC laser cut, CNC formed 3/16-inch steel plate. This design gives you a strong control arm that greatly improves performance. Greasable, 95-durometer bushings add a solid, more responsive feel over the stock rubber bushings. BMR’s bushings are internally fluted, which allows grease to evenly coat the inner sleeve. These flutes also direct grease to the outer edge of the bushing, keeping the thrust surface lubricated. This efficient lubrication ensures quiet, reliable operation over the life of the bushings.
