Hi Volks'
    Duh, I pulled out the Bentley, and the broken part is the trailing arm.
Broken close to the outer bracket.
    My questions about how to fix/replace, and putting on a ramp truck still
stand though.
    I've never seen one of these break before other than on an off road or
dune buggy type vehicle.

Hey Dave, how are ya man?
rear trailing arm?
I would just replace it.
Wouldn't that be the easiest?
It also could be weakened in other areas as well,
and it would take mag particle inspection to show those cracks.
best of luck!
