Trialing Arm Alignment Check/Service Options

[friethmiller]

I would like to check the alignment of my trailer arms before I recondition them for the LE. I know there's a Lamont guy in CA that had a jig for 914 trailing arms, which he used to reinforcement the arms. My main concern is the driver side that got hit in an accident long ago. Does anyone know of anyone that can do this check? Tangerine Racing no longer does it and Elephant and PMB provide a reinforcement service. Is there any way I can DIY?

Edit. I see it is the drivers side for a 74.

I would get a replacement from a car that has not been hit. I probably have a bare arm cheap. Which side and year?
I did sell one to a shop that could not get the alignment specs on one corner. You could not tell the arm was bad.

Bruce, you reminded me. I think I should have an extra set of trailing arms from another '74 that I parted out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I'll go look out in my shed.
