Default torque arms and 12 bolt help

yes i know there is plenty of threads about this but search just dont help because this is for my specific application

ok i just got done with my turbo install and im BROKE keep that in mind. the last few pennies i have are going towards a new rear and want some suggestions i am thinking of either strange or moser 12 bolts leaning more towards the strange s60 but my main question is what driveshaft will i NEED if i can get away with the stock one thatd be great this isnt going to be raced on just need it to get it tuned on. also the torque arm can i get away with the stock torque arm and an extension or adapter bracket or something?

i plan on replacing them both after i get it tuned and roll around on them for about a month i just want to get it back on the road soon its been down for like 6 months and i want my car back

thanks!!

Hello, you can get away with the stock driveshaft for awhile. You will need to get a different u joint put on the rear of your driveshaft. I sell both Strange and Moser products plus custom driveshafts. Give me a call if you have any questions.

I pretty much have my mind set on a s60. Because at the moment I'm broke and have a carcareone card with byunspeed and can make a couple payments.

Also I already have my stock drive shaft so itd probably not be a good investment to buy another one unless your selling it for less than the price of the yoke.

And what about a torque arm will that work stock? Or do I have to completly buy a new one? Anyway to make it work that's money smart I don't wanta spend more money trying to make the stocker work than the price of a new one lol would like just some sort of bracket or something

Also itd probably help to say this is an 02 camaro m6

Thanks guys!

I'm not sure if this will help but your not getting many replies so... free bump anyways

I'm demodding my car to sell and just took a 12 bolt out and put a stock 10 in. I have both the stock torque arm as well as the after market Edlebrock arm out of the car right now. Laying them side by side they look close enough I think either would work.

If this would hold true for what your looking at getting idk.

Well, I dont knot if you are still looking or if you found out, but fwiw I put a moser 12bolt in my car about 2 months ago and all I chaged was the u-joint, the part number above is correct cost about 12bucks I think.

Stock DS and stock torque arm bolted right up! Although you will use different bolts for the torque arm and some thead lock is a must!
