BMR Fabrication Trailing Arms for the Pontiac G8



Stabilize your Pontiac G8 caster settings and minimize wheelhop under performance driving conditions with a set Trailing Arms from BMR Fabrication. Superior to the factory stamped steel arms, BMR Trailing Arms are composed of 1” x 2” x .120 wall rectangular steel and 3/16” CNC laser cut steel plates. In contrast to the open factory rubber bushings, the BMR Trailing Arms (TCA026) utilize fully-fluted, greaseable, low-deflection polyurethane bushings for fluent operation. Available in black hammertone or red powdercoat finishes.

I feel like I am replacing the whole suspension one part at a time and I like how my car drives.

Helped sharpen the rear end response a tiny bit and reduced wheelhop. Easy enough to install....

Very simple install. Pretty straight forward, just make sure to turn the grease fittings the right way first time.

Whats your rear air pressure?

It's high. I haven't adjusted it from what the factory did. I keep forgetting. Will high pressure create hop?

Try 36 and let me know when you get a chance.

The lower tire pressure seemed to help in a burnout situation. When I'm on the ragged edge of traction it still hops. I'm sure that will have to be addressed with suspension mods.

Intrested as well, and I might throw in the strut tower brace, if it will clear the Maggie in the future. ;)

No clearance for 'charger---you can't even get the stock engine cover off with the STB on.
As to discount, call BMR direct :)

Looks like it might clear Maggie, definitely will not clear Procharger.

Mine has wheel hopped like crazy from the first test drive. Every time I spin the tires for any reason it gradually progresses into a hop fest and not the beer kind.
