Thanks for the information on the bearings. NMB are great bearings also.
The OEM trialing arm bolt is longer than the one I use. As the OEM trailing arm has a counter bore before the threads start to engage. The thread engagement on the ARP is at .75" which is about all the thread you get in the weld bung that it screws up into. I will measure a OEM one thiis weekend to compare though, good thought.
I have seen Kevins A arm bushings, very good idea.

These threads are great to work out the details and see what everyone is interested in. So let me know what you all think that is holding you back from this great idea for a production product. I am assuming price so I can do some searching on sourcing the part differently and see what I can do. I did get some breaks on parts for my trialing arms and have updated the prices.
