Rear trailing arm is just the kind of rear suspension it is. The trailing arm is part of what connects the vehicle body to the suspension. It's stock on your car, but it looks like they fabricated a new adjustable one. Yum.

Remote reservoirs for the shocks just means that there is a separate external tank for the shock fluid. It helps them to be able to adjust the stiffness of the shocks as they adjust the coilovers. This way, if they raise up the coilovers, they don't have a lower-than-normal pressure in the shocks...they can add more fluid to bring it back to "normal." Conversely, if they drop the car, they don't have a higher-than-normal fluid pressure, because they can dump some of the displaced fluid back into the reservoir.

What I want to know is where they got the HCD-III all-wheel-drive suspension?!?!?! I want that.
