my mac TA didnt fit. jegster is the same style, it wont fit either. i had to fab up some mounts and bash in the driver back seat bump under the car so that it would fit. my buddy with a 3rd gen had to do this exact same procedure when trying to fit a chassis mount TA to his ford 9".

I just receive my Currie 9-inch and found that their torque arm mount results in the stock torque arm being 1 1/2 inches further away from the drive shaft. There must be something about the 9-inch that will not allow the TA to be any closer. I can't imagine Currie making a one and a half inch error. In any case, I'll have to design my own TA to prevent having to perform major surgery on the tunnel.

We had to clearance my old R/T tq arm in one spot otherwise it fit fine with my Moser 9".

My newer Alston tq arm had major problems connecting to the Moser tq arm mount, talk about stacking tolerances.
