To revitalize the 10th and 11th Gen markets and provide unprecedented capability in this industry, we had to consider serious design factors. In this case, we chose to replace the knuckle design with a trailing arm for the Integra, Accord, and Civic suspensions. This change allows the suspension to handle power better, improve suspension geometry, and create enough clearance to accommodate a bearing, hub, and speed sensor input for these chassis. Our design enables the use of OEM sway bar mounts and shocks, and it also allows for the installation of AWD using OEM Honda bearings and sensors. 

We've incorporated billet toe adjuster isolators and stainless steel threaded toe adjuster screws with misalignment spacers to easily adjust the toe and keep it in place. Additionally, this arm allows the fitment of OEM calipers with electronic e-brakes and promotes the use of OEM calipers and aftermarket big brake kits. Constructed with chromoly, each side of this setup weighs 9 lbs, compared to the OEM knuckle and trailing arm combo, which weighs 27 lbs on each side without the caliper, rotor, or bearing with the hub. 

We use COM14 bearings with this setup, making it highly responsive to changes in geometry, and 4340 chromoly heim joints provide variable length adjustability. This solution represents our direction in motorsports, designing complex solutions for drivetrain and AWD-configured suspension systems. It's a world-first in manufacturing and is currently available for sale at a price of 1400 USD for a pair of assembled 10th and 11th gen NON TypeR trailing arms for those ready to make the transition.
