I believe it is a trailing arm but cannot find any information on google nor in the Haynes manual. I am getting a loud clunking when weight shifts as well as during parking lot maneuvers/ bumps Confirmation of part name and where to replace it would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like potentially an aftermarket tramp-rod setup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotgun not finding new parts for it. https://ballaratperformance.com.au/shop/uncategorised/ford-rtv-awd-locking-ute-rear-trailing-arm-diff/ This might be it though https://superpro.com.au/find/superpro-torque-rod-bush-kit-for-a-superpro-suspension-parts-and-poly-bushings-for-ford-australia-falcon-2002-2008-ba-bf-wagon-ute-and-cab-chassis-/productnr-SPF3922K/cid-999501149/vid- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like potentially an aftermarket tramp-rod setup... I think you are right, from what I can see online other FG X Utes don't have this. Do you reckon I could just remove it? 1 hour ago, TurboBurbo said: N̶o̶n̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶c̶a̶b̶ ̶c̶h̶a̶s̶s̶I̶s̶ ̶m̶o̶d̶e̶l̶s̶ ̶o̶n̶ ̶c̶a̶r̶s̶a̶l̶e̶s̶ ̶a̶p̶p̶e̶a̶r̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶m̶ Scratch that, is it an RTV? they all appear to have them.

Call Superpro and they'll help. They should be fairly easy to swap over, it's a fairly simple part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
