A better rear long arm kit shouldn’t just work better. It should be easier to fit too.
That’s exactly why we redesigned our GQ/GU Patrol Rear Heim Lower Long Arm Kit – Gen 2 (SC-002220).
After years of fitting our own kits and other brands, we knew there had to be a better way. So we built one.
Here’s what makes this kit different:
👉🏻 Around half the install time – Our double-shear bracket design eliminates the need to hole-saw through the chassis rail, saving a heap of labour. That little extra you spend on the kit can be saved on installation.
👉🏻 Stronger mounting brackets – Built from 6mm and 8mm steel, with a plug-weld slot that makes installation easier, particularly on wagons.
👉🏻 Engineering support – We can supply testing data to assist with engineering approval for road use, including higher rear axle loading as part of GVM upgrades. Final approval is subject to your engineer and applicable requirements.
👉🏻 Slider mounting provision – We’ve even incorporated mounting points for rock sliders into the bracket design.
And of course, you still get the benefits of rear long arms — reduced rear steer, less pinion angle change and better axle behaviour when climbing obstacles.
Less mucking around fitting it. More time actually using the Patrol. 😏
