Trailing arm bushing - accidentally cut into arm a bit, am I screwed :O ?
![]() so on my quest to get out my trailing arm bushing my saw was in a bit of an angle and i did not notice that it was cutting into the back end of my arm a bit... the cut is about 1/8" or maybe 3/16 deep on the back side of it... i'm worried my car is going to kill me now ![]() |

You have created a sharp spot where a crack can start in a piece of metal that is under stress all the time, but I would use it. I might put something in that slot to keep the water out, but that's all.

At the very least, i'd fill that slot with JB Weld, then sand it down.
