Finally Modded Defender Trailing arms
Posted: Sun Apr 10, 2005 7:35 pm
Hey Guys,
Sorry it took so long but had some minor production delays.
Basically if anyone knows the defender trailing arms they know they will bend on sight especially with difflocks and/or big tires. They are pretty puny when compared to say a patrol and as some of you have seen on slunnies 4wdlinks site I did an awsome job of "modifying" mine into a U.
Long story short I have had some custom ones made by fernando at 3rds Automotive and they look awesome. These are much bigger than standard and Big balls offroad has been selling the ones for the patrols and cruisers for a while and they have had great reports.
new before fitting
modded (in blue) versus std
As a result of me being a guineee pig anyone who wants some can get them through me for $350 or around $400 retail from Fernando.
fitted with std comparison
Photos are up on my 4wdlinks site

The vid is called "bending landie on rock.
pm me for details.
