Default Anyone using the Yank transmission crossmember?

Thinking about getting this to take the TA off the tail shaft and eliminate the driveline flex. I would like to hear comments from anyone using this. Stuff like traction, vibration, and overall satisfaction. Thanks.

Thats an old post Matt. Ive been using it for a while know with no complaints. Theres a little more road noise but with my exhaust peace is a thing of the past. Car cuts mid to high 1.5s at local shitty track.

Fits like a champ and not hard at all. I only noticed added vibes above 80mph at part throttle driving. At the track I dont really notice it.

I would also like to know how much vibration you gained with the M6 tranny. I am about to add this to my car, but was worried it would vibrate to much and get tired of it over time as I drive my car daily.

Anyone using the TH350 without the torque arm mount? I'm not too worried about vibrations or noise, but would like to get an input on it. Also, how's the fitment, quality, design, etc.?
