Anyone here bought the heavy duty or offset arms from Ecklers ? Same price as VBP or VanSteel but they look different on their website, is it just a bad/old photo or do they sell their own design ?

I honestly don't know... IIRC the basic concept was pioneered by Greenwood with the racing Vettes of the early 70s.

If it was my $$$, I would go with VBP...

On the C3, they have a trailing arm with bearing. The offset allows for wider tires, among other benefits.

Personally I like the looks of the solid T/A's better. The lightweight ones look a little, uuhhhmmm, flimsy.

VB&P has them too. I think Bair's as well.
