Default rear control arms

So im a auto tech, and the other day I had to put an engine in a trailblazer(4.2) and when I got done and was washing the floor, I noteced that the rear lower control arms look about the same length and bushing width as my z28.... so I measured roughly, looks darn close. might be a cheap option for a up grade, they are tube type and look to be very tough... just gota make shure not to change pinion angle.... Ill let you know, I got a budy at a junkyard pulln me a set

just measure them if they are 19.25 from hole to hole. then you are good to go.

but pretty sure the front mount is on there at a angle.

If its an 03 and up trailblazer the arms will not work. They are similar in length but not work. The trailblazer arm is 1/4" longer and 1/4" wider. If you need a good set of arms for your z28 take a look at what we have to offer.
