To remove the trailing arm, you should start by removing the coil spring, brake shoe assembly, brake hose and brake line brackets, parking brake cable brackets, and ABS wheel speed sensor if equipped. Then, remove the hub and bearing assembly. Separate the brake backing plate from the trailing arm and suspend it with a piece of wire. Finally, mark the relationship of the toe adjusting cam to the trailing arm mounting bracket, unscrew the pivot bolt, and separate the trailing arm from the vehicle.

After installing the suspension components, it won't be necessary to bleed the brakes unless a hydraulic fitting was loosened. Additionally, have the rear wheel alignment checked and, if necessary, adjusted. Please note that these instructions are provided in a generalized manner. For specific vehicle models and repair procedures, it's essential to consult the manufacturer's service manual or seek professional assistance.
