Default "Need help" Torque arm won't fit, plus another screw up lol.

Its an Edelbrock stock replacement "non-adjustable" T arm, it fit the 10 bolt fine, but it won't fit the 9" T arm Bracket, what arm will fit these, do i need an adj. arm?

Also, i think i screwed up with the Caliper brackets when i had the axles bearings installed , they are faceing towards the front, not the rear, i knew i should have takin pictures, can anyone help!

Well hopefully/maybe i didn't mess up on the caliper brackets, i got to looking at some pix & can see the calipers are towards the front, but i still need to figure out this torque arm issue.

You will have to probably modify the back of the the torque arm to fit the moser mount. I had to do that with the LGM I purchased.

Don't bother trying to make the Edelbrock work. They are already too weak. Been there. Get a UMI or Spohn adjutable. Very good fit.

Yeah, i noticed i would have to really modify the Edelbrock T arm too much, then it wouldn't be worth a hoot. I was hopeing i wouldn't have to shell out for another T arm, especially an adj. one.

About the Caliper brackets, does anyone have a pic of how the calipers will be positioned in the rear? Thanks
