    Trailing arm alternatives?

    Anyone know if there are any alternatives to the mxs trailing arm. I heard rumor of the 1988-92 MAZDA MX6 arm working?

    Are there any other pieces that might interchange?

      Thats why I wanted to double/triple check that arm works, before spending the $140ish on the pair. (which isnt that bad seeing how stock arms go for $50 a piece and dont come with bushings...)

      But, will they work with both drum/disk brakes? I know the GS arms have a larger bushing on the brake side.

              Well I have bad news for you. My escort arm measures the same as your MX3 one. The MX6 one measures 1" longer.
