I have the entire rear suspension removed from my '68 and the trailing arms have been stripped for new bearings, seals and bushings. Now seems like the ideal time to check the straightness of the trailing arms before I start reassembling things. Does anyone have or know of a shop that has the factory jig tool for the SWB trailing arms?
I have all the jigs for those people in The Benelux wanting to check theirs
in the who? what? were??? lol
For those people between Duitsland en de Noordzee.Quote:

Quick question, verify which way they bend when they bend out of specification shape?
Some years ago a rear banana arm bent (at turn 5 at Road America) causing a rear wheel to
toe out - and massive oversteer. I'm thinking the banana arm bent in following the original
curved bend - just more of it. Does anyone have experience with the arms on a jig to verify
where the deformation happens?
Where would a strengthening flange be added to the banana to support them from bending?
Tires keep getting wider and have far more stick.
Hope you find your jig.
