Suspension Tube 17in x 5/8in -18 THD

The Suspension Tube 17in x 5/8in -18 THD from WEHRS MACHINE is a precision-engineered component designed for builders and mechanics upgrading suspension geometry on high-performance vehicles. Built for custom fabrication, frame modifications, and competition suspension setups, this tube serves as a critical link in adjustable suspension systems where threaded connections ensure repeatable adjustments and secure retention. Whether you're tuning a race car, hot rod, or heavily modified street vehicle, this component provides the rigid support needed for consistent handling and alignment.

Manufactured from steel and finished in black oxide, the suspension tube measures 17 inches in length with a 5/8-inch outer diameter and features 5/8-18 female threads on one end for reliable fastener engagement. The black oxide coating provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance while protecting the steel from oxidation in harsh underbody environments. At 1.89 pounds, the tube delivers adequate strength-to-weight ratio for suspension arms, control links, and adjustable tie-rod assemblies where precision length control is essential for fine-tuning suspension geometry.

This suspension tube is ideal for fabricators and suspension specialists building custom A-arms, panhard bars, and lateral links on street rods, drag cars, and off-road vehicles. The threaded end accepts 5/8-18 bolts, studs, or rod ends, making it compatible with standard suspension hardware and rod-end bearing kits used throughout the aftermarket. Installation requires proper welding or mechanical fastening during frame assembly; verify overall suspension geometry and clearances before driving to ensure safe operation.
