Just need one quick trailing arm measurement

[vdubspeed]

I know there is a subforum for this but that place doesn't get much action.

I just need anyone with a BRAND NEW or perhaps from literature tell me what the distance should be between the two "arms" on a rear trailing arm should be.

Measurement would need to be with the bushing out. Mine are different by 1/16th and I'm trying to figure out which is incorrect.

Thanks!

Curious also, since I have a bent passenger arm?

I don't believe there is a published spec, and any arm could be off (as you noted).

This is actually a pretty well documented issue amongst the z3 guys (who run the same trailing arm design). Randy Forbes made a test jog and threw a couple arms on .... all of them ended up different.

Good luck though. Given some time I'll measure a couple in the next week.

Again a bit of an old thread, but bump it up, I have the same issue. Major camber on the rt rear
