[TR] TR4A trailing arms

[Jerry Van Vlack]

I’ve copied Marv Gruber he may have a pair or call Scott Harper at Team Triumph in Warren OH. 330-392-7176
Both are good resources. The Patton tool works well, I’ve used it. It will locate well if Keen Serts can still be used.

Just how bad are the  stud holes in the ones you have? 
They’d have to be pretty bad to not be repairable - whatever trailing arm goes back on the car should have keenserts or helicoils installed in those holes - so you’d be drilling out significantly larger holes - especially if you fit larger studs and use keenserts (if I remember correctly, keenserts require a larger hole than helicoils)
Of course you would need this:

  I am looking to buy a pair of trailing arms for a TR4A.  My studs are in bad shape and I am looking for replacement arms with decent studs.  I will likely fit the Goodparts axles with 3/8" studs so the studs themselves currently in the replacement arms are not critical.  The aluminum of the trailing arms does need to be in good shape.  

  Does anyone know of some trailing arms that I can buy!
