Mani, i have a spare set of disc trailing arms that are complete but need overhauling that you can have. The only problem is that you will have to collect or arrange a courier.

cheers

All in the wiki - you just take the disc trailing arms, callipers, calliper carriers, 4 hoses (rather than the 2 you get with drums), and get them bolted. See my blog if it's any help
