Lee the bus has had 5 mot's since i bought it all at different garages.The trailing arms didn't show any signs of rust.
I will try and post some photos at the weekend.

Cheers

Harryman i will check that again tonight only had a quick look last night.
Just checking what i need before i put an order into brickwerks,
4 trailing arm bushes
4 nuts and bolts
do i need the inner trailing arm bushes?

Not had a chance to remove arms yet i take it they could be a problem.

Think i might have found a couple of replacement trailing arms.Not sure what kind of condition there in,is there anything specifically i should look out for?

Thanks
