Can someone tell me what parts are needed to rebuild the trailing arms?  Better yet, can someone post a link to the rebuild kit and/or other parts that are needed?  I tried to find a rebuild kit with all the parts in one package but didn't find one.  Thanks in advance.

With all the set-up involved it would be easier to send them out for rebuild using one of the vendors or VBP or VanSteel.

Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

I can do better than that.... Call Jim Stevens @ 1-608- 365- 0911. He has the kits, arms, and more if you need it.

He also has an EBAY store TYLERSPARTS if you want to review a few of the items he has to offer.Tuxblacray2009-03-11 14:59:23

Sorry but a little project with the 'Vette took all my free time this weekend. Just looking in here again.  Thanks for all the suggestions. Looks like some good stuff

Roger, by the way Duntov Motors is in Farmers Branch, Texas... corvette440hp2009-03-02 11:24:18

We also offer rebuilt trailing arms on an exchange basis.  Just one more option.

Hey Roger.......how's the Trailing Arm project coming along?  Got them off yet?

Tux, no I haven't called him yet.  I am finishing up another project right now on it.  I guess you could say that I'm beginning to think forward to the next critical project I need to do and that is the TA's.  I have another Vette buddy close by who has been twisting my arm to have his friend do the actual work rebuilding the arms (it's a guy who has rebuilt a good many already for other NCRS folks - and he also does full restoration projects on cars for folks).  My buddy told me that if I supplied the parts then his friend could rebuild them for $150 each.  So that was the reason for the original question.  I haven't even talked to the guy yet about it.

He is a great resource and will help you with your rebuild even if you choose to have your guy around the corner do the work.

For the $$$ that your buddy is talking about I would most likely go with a rebuild kit too.

Hey Tux, just talked to Jim about a set of offset TA's. All new for 900.00 with exchange of your old ones, must be in good shape for rebuilding. I do beleive he told me 250.00 to rebuild your TA's per side. Thats 100.00 less than anybody else per side.

Thanks Dick! I will give Jim a call. I need to talk with him about something else anyway if he has the time and we can get together.

I appreciate your help!

Micki, yes I've been working on him to give me a hand on this new project.  So far he's resisting somewhat.  We store the 'Vettes and work on 'em in his garage (he's single and thus can spend whatever he wants on his car hobby - and thus his 4 car AC/Heated garage).  I imagine I'll get to start on it (or at least the trailing arms) soon as the wife has ok'd the funding.

Hey Tux

Hi Roger, Jim's number is 608-365-0911. Tell him your from C-3VR.                                                          Dick

Thanks Dick for letting Roger know this. I don't know where the previous number came from ? I did a copy / paste and it came up terribly wrong.

I changed the number as well above so nobody else might be confused.

Roger I spoke with Jim today about your needs. He said he would be more than happy to sell you whatever you need. If you need additional advice for installation he would help you with that too.

He said if you wanted to get prices from other folks on the items you need he would certainly beat their prices. Not knowing exactly what you were wanting I couldn't be any more specific.

I gave Jim your name and location and told him you would be calling. Hope this helps you out.
