Re: Got new tear trailing arms today.

The cost was equivalent to the cost of replacement stock arms or other aftermarket arms. $587 on website plus shipping and tax. To me they were $667. I thought that was reasonable and you get to choose from a small list of colors for powdercoat. I wanted square/rectangle tube and traditional bushings. Not a fan of heim joints for daily drivers. Just letting others know there is another option out there.

Traditional heim joints aren't great for daily use. However, Johnny joint style heims are great. That's what's used on my TCI arms. I'll never run aftermarket arms with traditional fixed bushings again after seeing how much they bind.
