Looking for any details on how to remove the rear trailing arm. I arm sure many have done it since I see a lot have put in new bushings. Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks.

Let me see:

- Detach sway bar
- Remove sharkfin cover
- Remove rotors and calipers (have a dish to catch brake fluid)
- Disconnect parking brake
- Detach brake line, sensor wire and parking brake cable from trailing arm
- Unbolt hub nut
- With some extra hands for support, remove main trailing arm bolts and slide it off the axle
- Support axles using wire, zip ties, etc. Don't let them sag and put downward force on the inner CV

Take pictures of components prior to disassembly if you don't have a photographic memory. Torque for the main bolts is 147 lbs, 339 for the axle nut.

While you've got it apart, check the wheel bearings. I mean, if you're going to go to this much trouble ...

Good luck!

Thanks Joey.
