Ok so after re turning and milling the rear arms are 34.5g , that's 8g off each , still heavy but a lot better .
Before

After

So after the rear arms the next heavy bit was the rear gearbox guard that I made out of 3mm aluminium weighing 29g .

I was thinking of just drilling it but then i remembered the Kydex i got for the bumper , still 3mm thick so good and strong so this is what i made .

i integrated the mount's for the roll bar braces to further reduce weight and at 14g with the ball studs fitted it's just slightly under half the weight
Between the trailing arms and the rear guard that's a reduction of 30 grams , not too bad !
