Default Which torque arm is upgradeable?

I want to buy a torque arm for my car but I still have the stock 10-bolt in it. I'm sure in the future I'll rip it apart. Is there a torque arm that fits the stock 10-bolt and can later be installed on an aftermaket 12-bolt or 9 inch?

I checked UMI's site and noticed you have to choose which rear end you're using so I figured I won't be able to use it ona Strange 12-bolt if I buy the stock 10-bolt version right now, right? What's the difference between them anyways?

Thanks!

Actually I think that if it bolts to a Strange 12 bolt it will still bolt to a stock 10. Ryan will prolly chime in. I think you begin to run into issues when you get into 9" rears

Hello,

We only ask for the rear end type for our reference and it doesn't change the torque arm itself in anyway. Our torque arms will work with the factory rear end, Moser/Strange 12-Bolt and the Moser 9"

If I can help anymore please ask. Thank you!

So it's the same torque arm for all of the rear ends?

x2, yes it is. We just ask for our reference, whether you choose 12-Bolt or 10-Bolt we send the same torque arm.

If you have any additional questions please ask. Thank you!

UMI Tunnel mount here. Started out on a 10 bolt and now on a 9". Fit like a glove and clearance is good too.
