Default OFFSET TRAILING ARMS ?

Is it a pain to install offset trailing arms, or is one of the thing I'm better off paying someone to do? :seeya

If you can get your old TA's off it will be easy........removal of the old ones is the hard part.

There's no difference between installing offset and regular trailing arms...

It depends on what kind of shape your frame and suspension is in. If its all rusty and hasent been apart in a long time or at all it may be a real pain in the a%&. Mine were but if you have the capability to do it youll save alot of money. There was nothing hard about doing the trailing arms except for taking everything apart.

Yup... I agree. I'm doing it tonight. :):)

The hard part was getting the old ones off and saving up the money for the new ones. ;)
