Need some help
Need some help I just got a new torque arm from UMI and need to install it on my car. I previously had one on my car and it just caused ALOT of shaking so they sent me a new one for free(awesome customer service). It might still shake with this one, but I want to install it and see if I can get it to ride smoothly. So here is where I need help. . . .does anyone have a lift or even jack stands and tools I could use to install it? I go to school down here in FL and have nowhere and no tools to do the install with, but dont really feel like paying 100 bucks to get it installed and possibly still shake. Thanks in advance.
If you feel like driving up to Spring Hill you can install it here. Might rain but I have off today and tommarow. If you arei n Lakeland probably a hour and half drive, or less.
I am gonna see if I can find someone closer, but if nothing else then maybe I will see if I can get together with you sometime next week or something. I work ALL day tomorrow. Thanks for the offer though
Ok, I have off every Fri/Sat. During the week its random when I get home from work, usually here by 6 though. I hear ya, thats a drive.
So was the old one shaky all the time, or just when you got off the gas? Does it mount in the stock location or is it one that mounts with a new cross brace? I've got a Spohn one where it relocated to a new mount, that thing bangs around everytime you jump off the throttle, its real bad if you're around 70 with the cruise control on and just tap the brakes to shut the cruise off, nice violent jolt. Also going over bumps you can hear and feel it moving around.

It would violently shake the car at ~55+ mph. Below that it was fine, but after that it was hell. I think the pinion angle was correct, but other people did the work so I really cannot be 100% sure. However, several reputable shops looked at it and couldnt figure it out. It was mated to a 9" which probably has something to do with it. It was a transmission mount, but I had the relocation bracket.
