Anyone have a pair of trailing arms ready to go? I would like to remove mine with a set on hand, then return my old ones or sell them. I would swap or buy or both.

Steve,
 
I replaced mine with a rebuilt set (w/ rotors) from Corvette Central & then I shipped my old ones back to them to get my core fee back.
 
C.C. still offers the rebuilt arms, & I'm sure that most of our sponsor vendors offer the same service.
 
Good luck,
 
Anthony

I purchaesd a set From VanSteel and then sent the old ones back for cores.  Their quality is great.



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

Thanks to all of you for replying.  I really appreciate the sharing of experience.  It is invaluable.

I realized today that I don't really have to buy a pair at once, I can buy just one if I want.  Only the right is really making the noise.  I know I will have to get around to the left asap, but I'm trying to take it easy on my budget, because I've really slammed my resources since I bought this '82, as needy as it is.  But I'm dedicated to it.  I've put too much of myself into it to turn away now.
 
Thanks again, and a special thanks to any veterans out there.  I'm a real flag-waver, and I really dig all of our folks who have served.  You've made it possible for me to have a Corvette, which was always MY American dream.

I put a bid in at e-bay tonight.  Rebuilt TA for $299 at Vetterx.
