Rear trailing arm help

Post by annavr6@vwheritage »

Hey guys

My left hand side one of these has a hole where the bush gos through. The hole is towards the inside so not visable once the bush is in?

Is this repairable or should i replace?

I just refurbed a set of 16" arms and one turned out to be past it's sell by date. Was straight forward for a man with the right kit to repair. I bravely had a go but had to admit it needed a new sleeve for the bush making up and 'letting in' local guy made a great job of it. Look here at end of thread
