RSR Trailing Arms
I have a Project that needs some 'short' RSR Trailing Arms, which are either impossible to find or cost a huge amount of cash.
I have been told, but am not sure, that they are the same length as the early SWB trailing arms. If this is true it should be possible to make up a jig and shorten some LWB arms and add the caliper mounting brackets. I am sure that there are probably some other changes and if any one has a sketch/dimensions that they would share I would be grateful. Thanks |

I believe that 930 trailing arms are the same as the RSR arms. They seem to come up for sale every couple of months.

I have a contact who has jigs and specifically takes stock steel arms and shortens and strengthens them to RSR arms. PM if you need details - he is in Droitwich, Worcestershire, UK. Ian

Larry,
Thanks but the 3.3 Turbo has aluminium trailing arms which are not correct for an RSR but would fit and are relatively cost effective Ian, There are a pair advertised on eBay (UK) at the moment from Bromsgrove and I would guess that these are from Ben. Unfortunately £3000 ($4500) is outside my budget and I need to find a more cost effective solution. Thanks anyway. |

Ben has lots of NOS and this could be some. He also takes standard steel arms and converts them in a jig he has. PM me and I can send his details. Ian

Though the turbo arms are shorter they also increase the rear track width
