87-89 Trailing arms different?

All,

I have a question concerning the trailing arm update for early cars.

are the G50 Carrera trailing arms different than 915 SC/Carrera trailing arms found on the 78-86 models?

I found one article here
trailing arm question


but I didnt find an answer unless i overlooked it.

Thanks,

There I go. Learning again from you guys.

Had a debate the other day with a friend. I claimed just that - that the trailing arms on the G50 was the same as the turbo.

I should keep my ignorant mouth shut..

syncroid,

thanks for the quick response. for some reason, I thought the pickup points were a little bit different because of the shorter torsion tube to allow for the G50.

But if they are the same part number, then its the same part!

I should have thought to lookup the part numbers
