Default Custom Torque arm mount

Hi Guys,
I am going to be building a custom torque arm mount (and arm) for my nine inch.
I was wondering if anybody had some pics of theirs to get me started.
I have a pretty good idea what I am going to do, but any words of advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Looks great!
A really simple design.
You will have to post up with how it works.
Any idea how much it weighs?
I was thinking of using some thick aluminum plate but it might not be worth it, not to mention I can't weld it.
Thanks again,
This site is great isn't it!!
