[DML] Re: TA Bolt questions

[DMCVegas@xxxx]

Well, if you want a safety device for the trailing arms, that 
shouldn't be a problem. You could mount a bracket onto the 
trailing arm, and a second onto the chassis. Then connect them 
both with some high tensile chain. The chain could be coated in 
either rubber, or plastic to keep it stiff, and from rattling when 
driving. Steel cable could also be a possibility, but would be a 
pain to strap into place.

I'll be honest though. This seems to be overkill if you're going to 
install the improved bolts. But it is an idea if you want to go all 
the way in fool-proofing the bolt.
