However - - check out the arm in the pix! Note that this is much more sophisticated and, actually, pretty clever.
I guess it was oakay?

Re: Canadian Tercel With Wooden Rear Suspension!
It's certainly not safe for highway driving so it IS crazy. If/when it busted loose the car would be all over the highway, endangering others. It's not even a good quality 2x4. It would be OK only for a parts car that stays parked.
