Trailing Arm Mounts

Post by Chilla »

My suspension hangers are, well.....hangin

Inner trailing arm mounts are perfect but the outers have succumbed to too much tin worm and are now a little thin for my liking. Ive tried a search for info but couldn't seem to find anything so a post to ask the question-
Anyone had any experience of changing them?
Does a prefab panel exist?
thanks in advance

just changed one on a customers syncro, couldn`t get a panel so ended up making one out of 4mm steel. you`ll need to jig it up before you strip the rotton one out but wasn`t that bad to do once you got stuck in.
