So am I missing something? Trailing Arm question...

[Booba5185]

So I recently found out that the GMPP square trailing arms and Dorman trailing arms are the same damned thing. I found out there was square GMPP arms last night, and did some digging then found a thread on an Impala SS that upgraded his stock suspension to BMR. Important thing is he included this pic:

So I ran out to my car and did a quick measure with my tape measure of my Dorman...just under 3\4 inch. So there is no difference? Sucks cuz I just bought some GMPP bars, then found out after the fact that some GMPPs were square and naturally the ones I bought were square, lol.

Am I missing something or are they the same f*cking thing?

Likely Dorman could be the manufacturer or the manufacturer that bought up the rights to the parts.

F*ck.

mmmmm those BMRS are sexy.

If only they were mine, lol. I'll probably end up getting some HT motorsports at a later date. Thanks to a badass seller I was able to get a refund, so no harm no foul.

BMR is close to me and ive been told if I go drive there and pick them up they take off 15%

The GMPP trailing arms on mine are tubular. Bought them many years ago.

 

[Booba5185]

At some point they changed them to the Dorman (square) style. Not too sure when they did though.

 

[The Guz]

When did you buy them?

 

[Booba5185]

I ended up getting a refund, but I bought them from Redcompg. That pic is from an Impala SS dorum though.
