    so did you have to grind out that arc or did the arm create it?

    thanks for the pic and the input on the terrafirmas

    cranked rear trailing arms.

    Hi,
    as Tombie says, the arc is there from the factory.
    i bought my old 90 with the arms already installed on it by the previous owner, however he didn't clearance the brackets to allow for better articulation.
    also i found this post on the issues.

    -Straighten the bent one
    -Buy a few metres of NB32H
    -Slide tube over factory arm
    -Encourage its location to remain fixed using the MIG

    Done - bomber strong for less than $40

    Unless you think you need cranked ones and then you will need to do something different.

    110 county trailing arms are the thickest factory AFAIK. However I have still sleeved mine just to be on the safe side...

    I have to say I have never noticed that arc on mine obviously just havent looked at it close enough.

    How much is typically ground out?

    RRC arms are easier to come by than County arms , RRC are still stronger than the standard disco ones as i stated

    trailing arms and bushings.

    something to remember when/if changing the trailing arm bushes at the chassis end, they come in two sizes.
    Early ones I believe are 16mm and later ones are 20mm.

    also found this while researching/learning..
