Yank - is your part made from Oval Pipe? ALSO how think it the tourque arm mount plate? Any chance of it bending? Just wondering?

Yank

iTrader: (181)

Our main support beam is a 2''x1'' .120 wall tubing this is stronger and will not deform like a bent piece or 1 5/8'' .083 tube will, with a torque load from hard 60's and quick braking.
The torque arm attachment plates and support strap are 1/4 thick steel

Yank - BMR claims that "(The mount itself is adjustable up and down to allow easy "instant center" adjustment.)"
2 questions. #1 - Does your piece offer the same adjustability and #2 - What exactly does that do for you. Is it just about the Pinion angel or is there more to it? What does that do for your Instant center? Thanks for the help, lata, Arkangel77

The BMR is a bad copy of our org. 1999 design but not as strong. Their torque arm support is flimsy and the cross tube is not supported correctly they have no side load gussets.
We found that there is one location that works well for the m-6 and one for the a-4 in our testing, and you can get way off base in the traction area if you do not know how to set up a suspension
Remember we have been producing these f- body crosmembers for 5 years now!
This is not a new game for us.

SO what is that ONE setting? are you saying yours come with Only ONE option and are not adjustable?

Again can you explain what it does to the Instant center when you mount it higher or lower?

Thanks for the Help, Lata, Ark

how long will it take to get it if i order today? oh and whats up with $50 shipping kinda high

sikws6

bad copy of your design? please....the biggest difference is theirs doesn't look like a tailer hitch ... as for the .083 tubing where is that listed anywhere? why so fast to beat down a new piece afraid of a little competition

sikws6

BMR already has one, called about one for me today!!.....later.....

Yank

do what you want! but our unit is stronger and does not flex, theirs have no braces for side loads and there bracket is far back on the tube which allows for rotation flex with torque applied.
as to the adjustment we have found the best location for each style
you have limited space for adjustment as the torque arm will hit the floor pan if moved up
you adjust pinon angle at the rear or torque arm.

I know that I am slow BUT you never said yes or no. However based on your post I will assume that yours DOes not have any adjustment, Thats Fine.

You still did not address the Instant center question? Are you able to answer this for me?

Yank

iTrader: (181)

I said that the IC is set for the each style one for a-4 and one for m-6
thats been preadjusted by testing.
Our orgnial had adjustments, but the new style does not.
As it is pre set if you want our OLD design we still have some in stock!
You can not go higher that our setting as the torque arm hits the floor pan
and lower gives less hit on the tire
this has been tested for 5 years on our part

Arkangel77

I see - So I guess the Higher the better as long as you dont hit the floor then and the NEW one is as high as is safely posible, COOl! I would definatly want the NEW style Unless the OLD style is supa cheap? Thanks for the reply, Like I said I am slow so thanks for covering it again for me. Lata, Ark

Do you think that the crossmember will elliminate the need for LCA relocator brackets on my car? Its not lowered but it still hops a little.

Yank

iTrader: (181)

The hop can be the flex at the torque arm mount bracket, they flex under load as does the trans mount itself
with this system the torque arm is held in place with no movement other than piviot on it's front mount, that is higher in location to transmit more load to the body
so I feel that it will help your hop condition.
I have tried LCA brackets and not had much luck as they need to be welded to work and there is still some flex in them
