Default th400 and torque arm

I've got a 95 z and I was wondering if anyone made a torque arm that will work with a th400 and a moser rear end? Also, If I currently have a six speed, do I need a crossmember for the th400? Where can I get one?
thanks guys

Check out Spohn for the torque arm ->

You should be able to use your crossmember with a poly mount (also available from Spohn), but you will probably need to make up a spacer to get your angle right.

I have a Spohn TA, and we are using an M6 crossmember and Spohn mount to put the TH400 in my car - I don't think there is any difference between the LS1 and LT1 crossmembers is there?

I'll have to check spohn out. There shouldn't be any difference between the two.

i would just put a tq arm on that doesn't connect to the trans. i run the BMR extreme personally.

i put it in orginally when i went th400 for a season and was glad to have it even when i went back to M6, its a nice piece.

I used the the hurst kit to convert from a 700r4 to TH400. You need to drill some holes in order for the torque arm to fit up right with it but other than that it has been great. I have cut 1.50 60' with that set up with a BMR adjustable torque arm I had before the TH400 swap. I also have a moser 12 bolt and everything came out perfect.
