^^^about $300 is typical for some good high quality trailing arms. I think CS priced the 8.8 kits just right - a little more for the turnkey do it in one weekend, and the partial kit to bank a few $$$.

I'm glad you decided to give the community trailing arms, they look great! Want some money Max? Do a turnkey fuel system upgrade kit - dual pump hangar with all the lines etc.

I posted this on LS1tech and in the general section with my "pig in slop" mega do everything and lots of trial/error and bolt on stuff thread.

Creative Steel Trailing Arms came in. You only need 4 spacers, I got an extra pack.





Here's a comparison:


The OEM bushing came out in about 1-2 minutes. Spray it with PB Blaster and push it out with a screwdriver.


They look pretty good installed:


Notice the spacers top and bottom, torque to 66[ft-lb]


Torque this one to 129 [ft-lb]. Notice the bushings are not squished and bulged.
