    megan racing rear adjustable trailing arms

    So I was looking at the Megan Racing site looking for a xmas present for myself. and I saw these..


    My question is, the application says 95-05 Eclipse. so does this work with the 8G or not? has anyone tried it? Or does anyone know any info on it?

    heres the listing on Meganracing.com

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    whaaaat? the solution to my camber problems?? I get alignments.. but it seems like afterwards i hit some bumps, drive it kinda hard and the camber comes right back.. maybe I'm just paranoid..

    I think that's right, but the 3G Eclipse also shares the same exact rear suspension as the 8G.

    Im about 98% sure those will fit. The only thing I dont see on that but might be on the actual product is the hook up for your sway bar link.

    Sorry to bring back an old topic back to life. Since no one bought this product (yet).

    Here's what the 8g trailing arm looks like. As you can see the sway bar link is connected to the trailing arm itself. If you want to ride like a DE without a sway bar and sport the trailing arms then go for it. Other than that, until Megan Racing sends me pics of the actual product on hand we'll never know.

    G-spot.. I will get some pics to confirm but I believe your pic description is incorrect. The part you have circled is the Rear Lower Control Arm.

    here is the layout for the 2g eclipse/7g Galant/ and rear 8g Galant Suspension


    Part number "1" is what the mega racing rear Trailing arm is suppose to replace.

    You circled part number "2"

    This part is supposed to stop this from hapening

    Iam sure they will fit however, you may not like the way it makes your car handle.

    These look like they are made to stabilize and strengthen the rear suspension to respond better in corners and aggressive driving. They may also make your over all ride a little more ridged if thats what you want...

    I would pick em up...there cheaper here...

    they will fit.
    they will not however do anything for your camber.

    You can also get them on ebay. Just search: eclipse arm
    and you'll find them.

    Its a little over priced if you ask me and I'am not going to judge by it looks.

    Would like to hear some comments about it if anyone buys it...
