Hey all
Whitline have a listing for AE86 adjustable trailing arms, but not for the TE72 (T18)
Both cars share the same trailing arm bush kit, but i'm not sure if the upper trailing arms are the same length.
Does anyone know the length of the arms on the AE86?
Thanks in advance

Damn, good question. This will be an in complete answer, but I know Whiteline fit the same upper trailing arms to the TA22 and a bunch of Celicas of the same vintage. To the 86 as well as a bunch of other RWD Corollas. So I guess you should be able to get them fitted.
The Whiteline site only has part of the story, call them up at their Minto plant (main factory). There is always someone there who knows, I have found.
Cheers

isnt 25 the lower arm?
I think about 48 is the upper?
i went and measured everything from a RA60 to KE70 at P&PL the other day and upper and lower arms were all pretty much the same apart from diameter where the KE70 is smaller

I had just fitted the Whiteline adjustable upper trailing arm to my sprinter, and I got the factory one right here, I sure it is 25CM

Thanks guys, much appreciated.
If its anything like the T18, 25 will definately be the upper arms, as the lower ones are almost twice as long.
