I’ve seen a number of posts on narrow IRS trailing arms and getting wider wheels under back of speedster. I ran across this company today and wanted to share with the group. Autowerks suspension. Hopefully my screenshot posts correctly. https://valleyautowerks-com.3d...m-Service-_p_20.html

There have been a number of people offering narrowed trailing arms over the years- if you can weld and have the room to build the jigs (they don't take up much room at all) it's not hard to do. At a glance his do look nice. As mentioned, shorter axles are needed. It's a good way to get a little wider wheel/tire in the back. With the right 8" wheels, 225 tires (I've always wondered if you could really push it with 245's- hmmm... that would be sooo badass! ), and pie cutting a Speedster's rear panels the casual observer wouldn't realize what had been done. And there are advantages to more tread- ever noticed how Porsche has been putting wider rear tires and wheels under their rear wheel drive cars for I don't know how many years now?
You know they're doing it for a reason...
Thanks for the link. I may be in the market for
There is another vendor who will send you his already done and you ship yours back so no wait time.
But they are not cheap... Cool rydes is more reasonable.

You are comparing apples to oranges. RLR are new fabricated arms, CRC are narrowed stock arms.
Oh I read the site some time ago, thanks for correcting the post.
