"What The Flux?"

Hello DeLorean Community.

I was wondering if someone could kindly help? I'm looking for any measurements of the rear suspension trailing arms please. Either left or right side. I have looked everywhere online for pictures or measurements of the trailing arms and can't find anything. The more measurements the better.

Any help much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hey, thank you for your kind response, I really appreciate it!

I have illustrated the measurements that I was looking for. I know I'm asking for a few, so no pressure if it's too much trouble, any measurements at all are greatly appreciated!

Thanks again for your help!

I have mine in good condition just sitting around from when I replaced them with stainless, if you want to buy some?

Buy some just to take a few measurements? No thanks.

Well, a few Fridays have come and gone, but I am here finally with the measurements. These were to the best of my ability. The Delorean Go arms pictured have a different box end where it connects to the hub carrier, and mine is pretty rotten, so the J&K measurements are not 100% accurate. If you are looking at stock arm measurements, K is close and J is as close as I could figure with the amount of rust damage. As you can see below, the stock arms have a different box end, it extends further with a cutout, compared to the D-go arms. Let me know if you need anything else.

A 5-1/32
B 4-1/8
C 2-1/4
D 30-1/4 (to beginning of where the curve begins on the bracket with the bolt holes)
E 4-3/32
F 27-5/8 (to beginning of where the curve begins on the bracket with the bolt holes)
G 5/8
H 2-1/4
I 1-7/8
J between 2-22/32&2-1/4
K 3-5/32

Hey Dan, thank you for your kind help with these measurements, I really do appreciate your time. These measurements are great! I actually preferred the stock arm measurements than the DeLorean Go arms, so this is even better. I only used the Go arm pictures as reference of the measurements that I needed. I should be able to calculate the J & K measurements from the other dimensions and photo reference.

Thanks again Dan!
