Trailing Arm Tools
Some time ago one of you helped me when I was working on rebuilding the Trailing Arms (swing arms) on my 69 vette. You gave me an eBay link to a person that sells the tools to rebuild the triling arms. Can you please provide the seller name or the link.

Try FastCorvette.com they are not an Ebay seller, but they are a supporting vendor. Spindle knocker, Spindle installation and setup tools for $140 free shipping. The best part is return the installation and setup tools and get $100 back.

They also have pretty good instructions for replacing the bearings

Do a search on member "bid-quest" on ebay. He lists one set of trailing arm tools each week. Usually each piece individually & a complete set. Prices end reasoanbly, just bid what you want to pay, don't get into a bidding war. He'll send you a "second chance" offer at your bid price if its reasonable. Bought a couple of tools from him. Ships right away & provides the UPS tracking #'s

Hey thats not a bad deal on the tools. I found the tools at a local swap meet for $125. I've done several rear bearing jobs now so it a difinate for me to get the tools. If you're just doing your car then what's it cost, $40 good deal.
