Megan Racing Trailing Arms
when it comes to the arms, so far i would say yes. over on another forum someone purchased megan rear upper camber arms for a 240sx. the threads were facing the wrong way on one side and megan (or their manufacturer) somehow forgot to weld the arm together. so they might actually be worse.
somehow their coiliovers dont blow up on ppl all over the place.
megan is a mixed bag. but i'd never recommend their stuff for any car.
that sucks man
i would call megan and bitch at them. then buy something else.
but if you're dead set on using these arms, you could drill out the holes a bit to fit the oem bolts.

Its a metal rod with a heim joint...not exactly rocket science! Worse case you buy a couple more heim joints when they get bad??? I would love to know what makes any other trailing arm sooo much better?
Does anyone know if they come with the arms??

Well, for starters----my rotary extreme arms fit perfectly. Also, they have dust seals to help keep road grime from getting into the heim joints.
agreed. so it's surprising how often companies **** it up.

I have a friend with a 240 with the Megan arms. He has broke two rear upper arms. Both times, the weld broke.

If you look closely at the rod end, its actually welded. The bearing is pressed into the outer housing, and then the threaded portion is welded to the outher housing. I have seen these painted blue arms in person, and would suggest people to stay away from them.
My Rotary Performance trailing arms, are made with a lot better parts. And are only a little higer in price. Even if the heim joint broke, the bolt will hold it together. But with the blue arms, if the welded joint breaks , the trailing arm will be in two pieces.
And by the way the blue paint chips easily.

I suggest you throw that blue junk away. I have seen these break all the time.
But anyways, if the bolt that screws into the trailing arm wont fit through the lower control arm. And it the stock bolt does not fit on the trailing arm. Then thats a problem you should take up with the place you bought it from. The part that you have might be defective.
