    Right on. The trailing arms are super simple and are the most proven arms on the market. Dozens of trucks run them with little to no problems..

    I know of one set that failed due to poor welding and poor race prep.

    the arms come ready to rock, they are yours to trash, if you weld them like crap or dont fit them right they can come out bad but you can make them really nice in my opinion.
