Thanks for the update, Denpo. The new(er) arms look great and look like they will provide a solid foundation to build on.
Keep us posted and Good Luck.

Look nice!
Just a slight tangent: why Johnny-joints for the trailing-arm pivot? I know they're used for links off-roading where you want maximum articulation and resistance to deflection. I would think the only motion you want in the trailing-arm pivot is in the vertical plane, with *resistance* to motion in any other plane?
