cossie rear radius arm
was just wondering has anyone ever bent a rear arm on one of these. my rear wheel is sitting funny and i've had piles of sierra's and they got the complete death drove otta them. but now my cossie which is looked after seems to have a bent one and was wondering do they bend easy if stressed the wrong way?

they have been known to bend mate
but before condeming the arm, have a look at the bushes to see if they are farked
there areother thngs to check as well, like the beam mounts or that the bearings haven't given up the ghost which would be more likely than bending the trailing arms, but with a lot of cars i'ev seen, he spring cup tends to retain a lot of dirt and muck and a few of them have rusted through here which has led to them being binned

beam mounts have a small bit of play in them but always have since i got the car and the bearings were replaced a while ago for mot.the arms arn't rotten either but its just that the car feels as if there is one wheel not conecting wit the road correct and the wheel itself looks as if its sitting funny in the arch
