What are the fastest trailing arm trucks that you guys know of. I hope to be right there with Paul Baxter when I get mine sorted back out!

My truck hasn't even been fast enough to bring up anymore. Josh Gray's old truck above is a fast truck. I assume it was trailing arms and coil overs. Maybe Kevin will make me push mine a little and see how quick we can go.

The farm truck has trailing arms. Have not talked to him since they all got famous....LOL
His fastest 1/4 mile time then was 10.13 I believe..May not be as fast as some here, but that beast must weigh 5000 pounds...

I just need to replace my trailing arms and build a bed cover and rear spoiler. I have some stuff in store to make it go quicker, just have to get off my wallet!
