non-adjustable torque arm question
If i get a UMI or BMR non adjustable torque arm for my lowered car would it help any? my car is lowred on stranos and i was reading the pinion angle on these TA's are for stock height cars. So what would happen if i put the TA on my lowered car? Will i gain or lose anything? I dont like messing with adjustable stuff so i prefer the non-adjustable TA. bolt on and go!!
any help would be great. Thanks

I don't think there is anything wrong with going non-adjustable...... you are still getting a much stiffer TA, and flex in TA's doesn't plant the axle as well. You'd have no issue with running an non-adjustable on your car with my springs, after all your stock one isn't adjustable and that's not a problem.
Adjusting a TA isn't real difficult, but it's not for everyone, and I can't say you gain tons with the little bit of pinion angle you can run before you can't go further because of binding u-joints. I think the stiffer, stronger part is much more important.
If we can help you out with a UMI TA, (both the adjustables and non-adjust are on my website) just let me know.
