Torque Arms

What Is a Torque Arm?

A torque arm is a suspension component used to control the rotational forces, or torque, generated by the drivetrain of a vehicle. It is typically a rigid or adjustable arm that connects the axle or rear housing to the chassis or frame of the vehicle. The torque arm helps to resist axle rotation, improve traction, and enhance stability during acceleration and deceleration. At JEGS, we offer a variety of torque arms, including torque arms for trucks, torque reaction arms, and engine torque arms. Explore our selection to find the right torque arm for your vehicle's suspension needs.

What Is a Torque Arm Suspension?

A torque arm suspension is a type of suspension system that utilizes a torque arm as a key component. The torque arm is used to control and transmit the drivetrain torque to the chassis or frame, providing stability and minimizing axle rotation. This suspension design is commonly found in performance vehicles, trucks, and some heavy-duty applications. It offers benefits such as improved traction, reduced wheel hop, and enhanced handling characteristics. At JEGS, we offer suspension torque arms, torque arm assemblies, and other suspension components. Browse our selection to find the right torque arm suspension components for your vehicle.

What Does a Torque Arm Do?

A torque arm plays a crucial role in the suspension system of a vehicle. Its primary function is to control and resist the rotational forces, or torque, generated by the drivetrain. By connecting the axle or rear housing to the chassis or frame, the torque arm helps prevent axle rotation, especially during hard acceleration or braking. This improves traction, reduces wheel hop, and enhances stability and control. Torque arms are commonly used in performance applications and off-road vehicles. At JEGS, we offer a range of torque arms, including suspension torque arms and torque rod arms. Explore our selection to find the right torque arm for your suspension needs.
