Adrenalin 4x4 heavy duty Johnny Jointed rear trailing arms for Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic models.
The perfect accompany to our Hi-flex a-frames!
These competition spec trailing arms allow for the very best in axle articulation on the rear of your truck (shock travel permitting) due to the incorporation of Currie enterprises Johnny Joints. The beauty of this type of suspension joint is that they will provide 30 degrees of unrestricted movement in any direction as compared to the 22 degrees on common rose joints. Another major benefit is that the ball joint is incapsulated in polyurethane unlike a rose joint, this give the cushioning and feel of poly/rubber bushes but with the added flex we all want. This also gets rid of the dreaded knocks and bangs that come with rose joints as they wear. The Johnny joint is also fully rebuildable and grease-able which means long term they are cheaper than rose joints as when these wear all the joint has to be replaced. We use the CE-9114 RH joint that features a forged steel construction, 1-1/4" shank, 2.625" centre ball and a 9/16" thru bolt hole. This means no need for different lengths of trailing arm as they are fully adjustable.
Not settling for second best we have designed 2 types of bracket to attach the joint the the chassis. Where as other manufactures use one poorly fitting 8mm bracket on all models, we designed one specifically for the Defender models and one for
Disco1/RRC both of which are 10mm laser cut. To ensure the best possible fit the latest state of the art laser scanning equipment has been put to use. This type of kit measures to the micron and is normally only found on manufactures production lines! We use the same 41mm CDS tube as found in our legendary double cranked arms and a insert bung twice the size of the next competitor.
Our trailing arms have now undergone over 3 years testing in the top winch challenge events, pay and plays and fast road use and we have had very positive results and feedback with no breakages to date!
When completing eBay checkout please use the message to seller box and confirm whether you require Defender or Disco1/RRC chassis brackets as multi-variation listings are not yet available in eBay’s car parts category.

Fitting notes
· If you’re aiming for the best possible articulation and running 11” travel shocks or more we would recommend notching the top of the rear axle bracket to allow for maximum twist.
