Spherical Rear Trailing Arm Kit, MkV/MkVI Volkswagen Golf/Jetta/GTI/R & 8J/8P Audi A3/S3/RS3/TT/TTS/TTRS
Looking to improve your MkV/MkVI Volkswagen or 8J/8P Audi's cornering precision and predictability? 034Motorsport's Performance Rear Trailing Arm Kit with Spherical Bearings ensures precise handling, and confidence-inspiring road feel by replacing the factory rear trailing arms to allow for proper suspension articulation without any deflection.
This bolt-in kit replaces the stock rubber rear trailing arm bushings on 8J/8P Audi A3/S3/RS3/TT/TTS/TTRS & MkV/MkVI Volkswagen Golf/Jetta/GTI/R vehicles with motorsport-quality Aurora Spherical Bearings. Unlike polyurethane bushings, spherical bearings allow for full suspension articulation without binding, while completely eliminating slop from bushing flex.
NVH is the measurement of how much noise, vibration, & harshness gets transmitted into the cabin of your vehicle. 034Motorsport Spherical Traling Arms transfer low to medium amounts of NVH to the cabin based on user feedback. In particular, increased sound transmission at low speed from the rear brakes is to be expected, especially with aftermarket brake pads. NVH is subjective so some users may find NVH to be increased or decreased from our rating. If you are experiencing higher than quoted NVH with this product, please email techsupport@034motorsport.com for further assistance.
The 034Motorsport Rear Trailing Arm Spherical Bearing Upgrade Kit is designed to replace the factory rubber bushings, resulting in improved handling, and more predictable and precise cornering.
Factory rubber rear trailing arm bushings deflect under load, causing the rear end to feel vague and loose, as well as leading to improper suspension geometry and increased understeer. This becomes especially apparent when cornering on uneven surfaces, where the back of the car can feel floaty or unpredictable. The same exact rubber bushing was used by Audi/Volkswagen on a variety of applications, from the Volkswagen Golf to the Audi RS3, leaving much to be desired by enthusiasts and competitive drivers alike.
This kit replaces the rubber bushings with motorsport-quality Aurora Spherical Bearings, which allow for proper articulation without any deflection, ensuring precise handling, and confidence-inspiring road feel. Unlike polyurethane bushings, spherical bearings allow for full suspension articulation without binding, while completely eliminating slop from bushing flex.
