The original trailing arms are retained for the rear suspension, but heavily modified. The main feature is the hub, this has been remade using a 3.3 turbo spindle. A new housing was machined from solid aluminium, then a mounting flange welded onto the existing trailing arm. The original rubber pivots have been replaced with needle roller and ball race thrust bearings mounted in a cartridge that fixes into the arm. Special spherical mounts allow for adjustment. Unfortunately I have no pictures, but the next time I strip it down I will take some. The trailing arm has been heavily reinforced. AP Racing 6 pot differential bore calipers and 3.3 turbo discs fitted.
