I say dont section the trailing arms because they are two pieces of c channel joined in a way to allow them to twist torsionally when one wheel goes up over a bump.
Not knowing all this, I shortened mine & moved my diff'l forward between 1 and 2 inches. Been done about 3 years with no adverse effects. Surely did make it look better!
