I bought these rotors with new bearing assemblies but need neew trailing arms to use them. Any ideas or advise would be great, I have 2x3's right now and am debating 5x5s with less offset rims.

The arms on my Funco single seater are 4" wider 5" longer. With a set of wheels that have a 5" offset, I won't be any wider than anyone else.

I got that part figured, just not sure if I want to build my own arms or buy some that will work on these.

Here is the Company that I believe uses those Aluminum carries:

Note I had a set of these and decided to go a different route as he uses the stock VW angle on the inner pivot. It tends to make the wheels act like a swing axel setup IMHO. I suppose you could get him to add the 2 or 3 degrees like most manufactures use when they get over stock dimensions like a 2 x 3 or 3 x 3. Personally as hard as you hit trees I would sell those and go with a complete chromoly set of arms from Avery Engineering.

You don't have to use those bearing housings to run those brakes. You could still run a stock or stock style bearing housing.
