Hi Bulli

Sorry to hear about your incident.

I'm looking into purchasing some replacement rear trailing arms.
Please could you send me an email of tha name of the company supplying the said items so I can make a more informed decision when considering who or not to buy from.

I would really appreciate any info or pics of the failing parts if it's not too  much trouble.

Kind Regards, gary

Gary:
Sorry Bulli

I forgot to put my email address in my last posting  :oops:

Sorry to hear what happened and glad you are ok.  If the incident was clearly caused by their product, you should ask for nothing less than complete repair of your vehicle, them to pay the cost of any damage to the carriageway (if 1 year down the line you get a large bill, it may not be easy to get this from them) and maybe even something for the trauma.

If they give you trouble over it, take it to an independant engineer to inspect (or call one out) and then submit the engineers report to them.

rokcrawlin:
I also have a set of these arms and have had no problems as yet, but knowing the company I am sure if you approach them they will be only too willing to rectify the problem, it may be that they have had a faulty batch and are unaware of the failures you have all informed us about ,
if they are machine welded the machine may not be set right and faults unless reported can go undetected for months or years try them and see what they say.

Bulli:
Thats the reason i havent jumped in with both size tens and named, names. I have had a look at the same item from someone else today(same cost) and the welding puts the old ones to shame.
Will let you know what happens tomorrow.
Things like this SHOULD never fail - it is life threatening and quality control should ensure faulty product doesnt reach the public.
