Do any other compaines besides Turner sell the weld on plates to reinforce where the rear sway bar link mounts to the trailing arm? I've got some new special links going in, and would like to reinforce the lower mount.
Trailing arm sway link Reinforcement?

Really Ely. Make your own. Took me a wooping 5 minutes to make 1/8th in plates and weld them to my arms.
Make a cardboard stencil, transfer to metal.
As a tip.. don't drill the hole until after you've welded it, that way you drill it perfect :)Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

I took a piece of box tubing, cut it diagonally so i ended up with 2 triangular pieces, and welded them on. Cost about a buck.Adam Fogg- '88 M3

Sorry, I didn't see the word Turner. Mine are the ones that came with the ST sway bars. They must be different.-Brandon

Mine aren't much different looking then Beej's. Just better welds. Mine are also wider, so they go left to right on the arm further.Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast
