My rebuilt Trailing Arms. (pic)
« on: October 20, 2002, 08:23:34 PM »
Last pic for today.
Here are my 2 rear TAs after their extensive refurbishment. Aside from the detailing that went into them you may notice that each arm has been completely seam welded and smoothed to within an inch of its life. Those with a sharp eye may also pic the extra brackets I made up and welded to the top of each arm. These form part of my own version of a 6 link set up that I put together during a rather protracted rear end rebuild. If anyone's interested I'd be happy to discuss how I went about achieving it.
Btw, it would be very remiss of me not to thank Bob Boes for his invaluable assistance when it came time to re-installing the bearings. Many thanks again Bob.

Will it make you feel any better if I said it's all dirty underneath already? I've really got my work cut out for me trying to get it ready for our Fox studios show next weekend......and it's not just cleaning that's got me busy either.  :(
