chassisworksGMtorquearmChassisworks has released their new Torque Arm Suspension for GM Muscle Cars including 1967-81 Camaro/Firebird and 1962-72 Chevy II/Nova. The torque arm system directly replaces the OEM leaf springs and shocks for remarkably improved handling and performance.

Official Release:

The g-Link torque arm suspension system directly replaces the OEM leaf springs and shocks for remarkably improved handling and performance. Each system is comprised of a fabricated torque arm, a pair of g-Link tubular-steel pivotball lower arms, a Watts link or panhard bar lateral locator, VariShock coil-overs, weld-on frame brackets, and optional billet-arm splined-end anti-roll bar. Together these components create a superior handling suspension system with multiple geometry and setting adjustments for further tuning and improvement. Subframe g-Connectors and center support create the torque arm chassis mount and are required for operation; these items sold separately.

To accommodate ultra-wide tire and wheel combinations a mini-tub configuration is available with narrowed housing, anti-roll bar, Watts link and offset lower arms. Stock-width and mini-tub systems can be used with our vehicle-specific bolt-in FAB9™ housings. FAB9 housings ship factory welded. OEM housings (stock-width configuration only) are fitted with bolt-on axle brackets but require welding for secure attachment of the torque arm mount.

Features:

  • Immediate acceleration/deceleration response
  • Increases ability to steer with throttle
  • Tremendous cornering capability
  • Improves overall braking
  • Watts link or panhard bar option
  • Mini-tub and stock-width versions
  • Exclusive use of spherical pivot links
