My trailing arm idea, what do you think?
I have been kicking around an idea to start building trailing arms that working men and women truck builders can afford, and wanted to ask an opinion of the masses:
What would you think if you could buy a trailing arm that was pre-bent to correct the pinion angle of a lowered truck? Since the pinion angle takes a nose dive the lower the truck is, well, lowered, I was thinking that trailing arms could be made available for trucks that are, say..... stock, lowered 2", 4", or 6". OR..... I could build a replacement front trailing arm mounting bracket with a number of holes to let the owner select the location to adjust the pinion angle at any time using stock trailing arms. I'm still in the planning phase, but I am looking at building stock replacement trailing arms at a minimum. I am also looking at putting together the following kits, just for starters: * Reinforcement plates and templates for shortening frames * Complete frenched antenna kits * Laser cut shaving kits for - marker lights, stake pockets, fuel filler, heater, door handle & key * Auto trans crossmembers * And of course, the trailing arms Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
