| Trailing arms
Do you use them on your rig? How do you like the setup? I am thinking about using them on a rig that I am collecting parts for. RC4wd makes a set for the Hard Core kit but I really do not like the idea of a 3mm rod ends. I honestly would like to have them made out of delrin and tapped for 4mm. The benefit of trailing arms would be looks for sure, performance, yes maybe. Travel for sure it would need rear sway bars without a doubt. The rig is going to be an Ultra4 design using axles from a Wraith kit.

The rc4wd one is tapped for m3 but there is enough meat to drill and tap for 8-32 and a revo rod end. Sczerba (sp?) is in the middle of a build and confirmed this for me as he did the mod. Good call on the wraith axle, the track width is near spot on to my slash4x4. Been thinkin of choppin it in half and getting another wraith axle. Cheddar and motivation are my enemies.

Maybe snag some from a HPI Mini Trophy? Might not be strong enough, but a really cheap alternative.
