Default Torque arm for a 6 speed car.

I have the Spohn torque arm right now i and it is not workiing to well for me i have always had probelms with it (had to cut loop to get it in the right place toruqe arm hitting floor at rear loop and over the diff. on every bump i can hear it slaping the floor). So what torque arms is every one useing i want one that is mounted off the rear of the tranny. But i do have the double dimand subframe connectors. What 60ft are you geting with what you have and does it come with a loop?

If you're having a problem with a Spohn product, give them a call. Steve is a really good guy to talk to , and I am sure that if there's something wrong, he can help you out.

I didn't even have to clearance the floor. Sliverghost, what kind of clutch are you running to cut that 60 ft? Gears, HP? Tranny stock, or redone?
