Author	Subject: Trailing arm shaft

I'm wondering when buying a new shaft does it need to be stepped like the original or can it be the same diameter along it's full length like some are on ebay. ________________________________________ Team Diesel

Not yet, only got the off side removed atm the outside bearing had nearly completely disintergrated. Tomorrow i'll be taking off the near side, which is the side that is still square to the beam tube. If the shaft on that side is good i'll just get the bearings. I'll put some pics up tomorrow. ________________________________________ Team Diesel
