Tom, I reinforced my stock trailing arms. It cost $6 or $7 bucks and took about an hour. I used 3/8 or 1/4 (I can't remember now) steel angle and welded them into the stock arm at an angle. It was quick and easy and they are tough as nails. They also provide a great surface to slide on. In the picture it"s kinda hard to see what I did, but hopefully with the description it will make sense.
