I finally finished my engine rebuild and went to weld in my new engine shelf when I noticed this fairly significant structural issue. I gave a slight wack with a rubber mallet to see how bad the "crack was" and the whole tab that holds the rear trailing arm cracked and bent.
Anyone done a repair like this? Any suggestions? I would rather not cut and splice a whole new section into the car. My only thought so far is to bend it back, cut out the bad metal and patch in some new metal. I am concerned about it being strong enough though. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.  Thanks Todd |
