Post Trailing Arms Mod

Anybody done this? I done this for a friend who has a 69 swb. It is 350 with a 700 trans. I think it is cool. He doesn't have enough power to worry about torque stress. Although the stress on these arms are at the springs. We will weld top and bottom seams and add gussets to the inside. Might do mine now.
