[T3] Saggy Rear End (was Re: Bella!)

[Mark Seaton <Markse@mo-sys.com>]

<x-flowed>I've been thinking for a while that I'd like to get the rear end of my 
fasty sorted out as I really don't like the over cambered look. I 
thought I could use something like these:

Seems a bit OTT but whats the chance of finding NOS trailing arms for a 
type3, and then have them go saggy over time too!
With the exchange rate the way it is at the moment they're not too 
expensive either.
Only problem I can see would be the damper mounting and the bump stops. 
I think I have done the damage to the current arms by driving for 3 
years along heavily speed-bumped roads, and early on I bottomed out the 
suspesion horribly hard on a few potholes before I sorted out the 
bump-stops that had rusted off. I think you need reinforced suspension 
to drive in London ;-)

Anyone have a similar set up on their type3's?
