I think it was time to replace my trailing arm!!

Ouch... to think I still drove it like that...

The right side T/A broke when I was in high school when I was driving down main street about 30 MPH. It broke right in front of the spring, the back end dropped like a rock.

Replacement on right is from 72 3/4 ton Arizona truck.

Cylinder Index
The Cylinder Index (or C.I.) is a measurement device in which the total number of internal combustion engine cylinders (working or non-working) owned by an individual (single-cylinder chainsaws, lawnmowers, 2-cycle, 4-cycle, multi-clinder diesels, trucks and farm tractors) are tallied. The Garage Logician who attains a C.I. in excess of his age is revered. - Joe Soucheray, Mayor of Garage Logic.

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
