I have never viewed the control rods on the rear of a M/C. Are these new/repainted stock control rods? Is this setup specific to coil-over or similar to fixed spring strut?
If aftermarket, what kind of lower control rods?
Any photos of tubular trailing arms?
Anyone with correct information can respond..thanx

i was thinking an 1.5 inch drop up to an 2.0 drop. i dont want it sitting on the ground. i was thinking air bags also, but those are euros and tuners, do airbags, i need to replace it all after my accident, i want to hold well on sharp turns at high speeds. but thumpings car is lowered pretty well.

bumpin96monte:
You are showing a '96 M/C.
You removed the non-adjustable stamped steel links and intalled two /four each adjustable lateral links.
What make are the black adjustable lateral links which fit your '96 M/C?
BMR told me their links only fit '00 and newer M/C/Implala as the '95 to '99 are shorter. UMI Performance does not make lateral arms.
Are tube type trailing arms interchangable for '95 to curretnt?
Did you replace the rear spindle or repaint the old one?
Thanx
