A trailing-arm suspension is an automobilesuspension design in which one or more arms (or "links") are connected between (and perpendicular to and forward of) the axle and the chassis. It is usually used on rear axles. A 'leading arm' as used on a Citroen 2CV, has an arm connected between (and perpendicular to, and to the rear of) the axle and the chassis. It is used on the front axle. “Car†and “Cars†redirect here. ... The front suspension components of a Ford Model T.

Trailing-arm designs in live axle setups often use just two or three links and a Panhard rod to locate the wheel laterally. A trailing arm design can also be used in an independent suspension arrangement. Each wheel hub is located only by a large, roughly triangular arm that pivots at one point, ahead of the wheel. Seen from the side, this arm is roughly parallel to the ground, with the angle changing based on road irregularities. A live axle is a type of beam axle suspension system that uses the driveshafts that transmit power to the wheels to connect the wheels laterally so that they move together as a unit. ... A Panhard rod is a component of a car suspension system that provides lateral location of the axle. ... Independent suspension is broad term for any automobile suspension system that allows each wheel on the same axle to move vertically (i. ... For other uses, see Wheel (disambiguation). ...

A semi-trailing arm suspension is an independent rear suspension system for automobiles in which each wheel hub is located only by a large, roughly triangular arm that pivots at two points. Viewed from the top, the line formed by the two pivots is somewhere between parallel and perpendicular to the car's longitudinal axis; it is generally parallel to the ground. Trailing-arm and multilink suspension designs are much more commonly used for the rear wheels of a vehicle where they can allow for a flatter floor and more cargo room. Many small vehicles feature a MacPherson strut front suspension and trailing-arm rear axle.

Replace your bent or rusty trailingarms with these tubular ones.
Tubular trailingarms are made to fit the trailingarm clips on any Type-1 IRS torsion or our custom torsion.
These new urethane trailingarm bushings prevent vertical motion at the pivot point which is greatly magnified at the end of the arm, altering any carefully planned alignment.
The trailingarms are more for clearance issues as Bacon stated...the Unobtanium is bushings only..if you have the arms you dont need those specific bushing because they would be replaced with the arms...
Correction: the Unobtainium trailingarm bushing replaces the rubber bushing at the "eye" of the trailingarm, which is the forward mount.
The trailingarm bolt passes through a pillow ball bushing in the lower control arm which is not replaceable with a standard bushing because of the required range of motion.
