944 trailing arm

I am about to help a friend change the rear wheel bearings. While we have the trailing arm off, what else would it be "the perfect time" to change also? like shocks/bushings/etc?
thanks everyone

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?

I am talking about other stuff under the rear in the vicinity of the trailing arm that are easier to deal with when the trailing arm is out of the way.
thanks

rear bearing, seals, brake hoses, clean/regrease cvs. may consider turning the rotors while you hace them off

hint: if you are going to heat up the hub to install the bearings, remove the rotor first - otherwise it acts like a heat sink

I wonder how many posts you've made with those two words alone. Have you had one break on you?
