I wanted to check the trailing arm bolts were tight enough so my first port of call was the WIKI above where it says

"All rear wishbones to chassis"

Obviously we don't have rear wishbones so is this a typo and the torque setting is 45-50ft/lbs, or is it something else? If it is something else does anyone have a note of what they should be tightened to?

Thanks in advance thumbup

The four small bolts (14mm scoket) which secure the in-bound flange of the trailing arm to the chassis.

....."inbound flange" sounds posh, is that its real name or have you made that up ! ....
Completely made up smile It's a flange, and it is on the inside (chassis side) of the assembly. Has it got a proper name then?
