My car is completely apart, so I can't just mock this up and check it out myself.
I welded a transverse brace between the two "arms" of the rear trailing arm, much like the M Roadster/Coupe arms and the early E30 M3 DTM cars. The brace is about 2-3" aft of the RTABs.
The trailing arms are finished and painted up nicely and it struck me that I might have an issue with the passenger side trailing arm brace interfering with the rubber hose that joins the filler neck to the gas tank.
Anyone have this trouble before? Am I going to have to cut into my nicely refinished trailing arm and move the brace??
I wish I had a helpful picture, but if I did, I wouldn't be asking the question.
Thanks.
