description  After converting to 4x E-Maxx shocks mounted to the outside mounts on the trailing arms, I break the mounts once in awhile after a hard run. Not content with just swapping in another arm, I made a couple different mounts from aluminum angle and C-channel. Should hold up well NOTE: I fitted these over the weekend and the outer part of the C-channel interfered with the metal axle support. Trimmed it down some,and all is good!
