I spent the better part of a week designing and redesigning my trailing arms just to find out they'll end up being prohibitively expensive.
Needless to say I said F that. I may consider doing my arms in 1018, but I'm so totally pissed with my 10Dez (everything has been a compromise) that I'm ready to take it and throw the damn thing in the dumpster. Someone hands me $35K, comes and gets it and they can have the f'n thing.
I'll be redesigning trailing arms and be using 1.25" tubing now. Why not, it's all been a compromise and a constant kick in the balls.
