1959–1962 Chevrolet Corvette Rear Strut Rod Mount Hardware Kit

Restore proper rear suspension mounting and maintain factory-correct performance with this 1959–1962 Chevrolet Corvette Rear Strut Rod Mount Hardware Kit. Designed specifically for C1 Corvettes, this reproduction hardware set provides the correct fasteners needed to securely attach the rear strut rods to the axle housing brackets.

Product Overview

The rear strut rods (also known as radius rods) are a critical component of the Corvette’s rear suspension system, helping control axle movement and maintain proper alignment under acceleration and braking. This hardware kit secures the strut rods to the rear axle housing brackets, ensuring stable and consistent suspension geometry.

This Corvette rear strut rod mount hardware kit typically includes OEM-style components such as:

• Mounting bolts
• Lock washers
• Jam nuts

These fasteners are engineered with the correct thread size, length, and strength to match factory specifications and provide proper clamping force. A typical configuration uses heavy-duty bolts and locking hardware to maintain a secure connection under load.

Proper hardware is essential for maintaining rear axle stability and handling performance. Loose or worn fasteners can allow unwanted movement in the suspension, leading to poor alignment, uneven tire wear, or instability during driving.

Manufactured from durable steel with an OEM-style finish, this kit is built to withstand road stress, vibration, and long-term use. It is ideal for Corvette restoration projects, suspension repairs, or replacing missing or incorrect hardware.

Over time, original hardware can become rusted, stretched, or weakened, especially in suspension components exposed to road debris and moisture. Replacing these fasteners ensures the strut rods remain securely mounted and function as intended.

Designed as a direct-fit replacement, this kit installs using factory mounting locations with no modifications required.
