Hi all, I'm trying to setup a LX Hatch for occasional circuit work, does anyone know if a set of boxed diff trailing arms will help a LX handle better ?
My LX is currently stock and needs some serious work before it will handle well, being new to this I'd love some tips.
Thanks
Robert

The main gain for boxed trailing arms is to reduce their flexing under serious acceleration when they are under compression. This may add some handling predictability when you nail it while exiting a corner.

Too easy to do yourself, dont have a continous weld tho, if it starts to crack in will crack the length of the weld.
