Default Best Torque Arm for Strange S-60

I'm ordering a new Strange rear end next week, wondering what torque arm to go with? I have a Kooks true duals exhaust on the car, will this effect what torque arm will fit? Transmission vs Body mount?

Thanks

Whats nice about the BMR adjustable torque arm is that the lower hole on the mount for the adjustable rod end is elongated. When the lower rod end is adjusted in or out the distance between the fixed (upper) and adjustable (lower) rod ends change, this will put the torque arm in a bind without a elongated hole.

This is a good thread that explains better what I said above.

Disclaimer: I don't have a BMR torque arm, I still have the stock one but I have a UMI TA Relocation Crossmember I'll be putting in if the weather ever breaks.

The MWC fully adjustable torque arm works extremely well and is the best value on the market. Comes as a complete package with choice of full length arm or tunnel mounted version, includes complete hardware and a nice powdercoated finish.

The tunnel mounted version is the most popular and includes a driveshaft loop installed on the crossmember. The full length version uses the same basic design and includes a trans crossmember to get the t/a mount off the trans.

Give us a call and we will be glad to help you out. If you have not inquired with is on the S60 we have the guaranteed lowest price and expert tech help when it comes time to install and tune the suspension.

I like my UMI one but I'd look into MWC if redoing it.
