Does anyone make aluminum trailing arms? Are they even possible?

Just curious, I imagine it would reduce the unsprung weight quite a bit. I searched, and nothing came up. I hope this turns into an awesome thread.

EDIT: *Looks at signature after posting* I think I'll click on my own link and search the fabrication forum, too

The only ones I've seen are the Ryane trailing arms. I have a pair (for sale BTW) and they are a couple lbs lighter than stock. The also lower the car 1.5" without effecting camber.

Hmm, did you install them on anything? If you did, how were they?
