How to rip off a trailing arm | Hidden Falls Adventure Park

SlewCrew Off-Road

We have a bit of a tradition of riding at Hidden Falls the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year Joe and Randy brought out their Turbo S and XRC to join Ethan and I. We always start the day with "lets just take it easy and cruise" but wind up getting into some shenanigans.

Unfortunately, Joe tore the trailing arm off of his Turbo S which ultimately broke both of his radius rods, broke both CV joints on the axle and twisted his shock. This was our second ride in a row that a trailing arm that has a threaded heim joint has torn out of the threads and led to failure. We're no experts but seems to be a design flaw from our experience.

All in all it's always a good time riding with great people no matter how the day turns out. Gotta stay positive!
