    Previous owner is reeking havoc once again.

    I was putting in my rear springs and shocks and I quickly noticed something wasn't right. What is a quick fix for this? My new shocks lower mount is much thicker than my previous bilsteins which is why this is an issue. Thanks for any help guys.

    Looks like it's time to find a new trailing arm.

      is that welded on or epoxy or what? go to your hardware store and buy nuts that will fit on that bolt put like 3 in a row and tighten, then try loosening the inboardmost one. :)

          Ya I guess my only option is to find a nice used trailing arm. I truly don't know what's holding that bolt in and why PO thought it was a good idea. Thanks for the replies.

              Thank you for the correction. There is no telling what words I'll spell incorrectly when PO cheap shots me.

                  Awesome. I'll see you around. I have an alpine white coupe with gold wheels.
