BMR non adjustable tourque arm and trans crossmember, i realize that i need pinion angle + or- 2 degrees, whats the best way to determine, protractor, or will bracket line up after rear is mounted to differential? i also will be installing BMR solid billet control arms and upper and lower panhard rods.
Thanks

You can buy from them a dial indicator to see where your at.

I would seriously considered not installing that for an adjustible piece.

what is the advantage of an adjustable? im not going any lower or dragstrip, or changing wheelsize.

Hello, the big advantage with the adjustable is you are able to adjust your pinion angle. If you have the torque arm relocation bracket you are able to do it that way also. You will need an angle finder. You should be able to get one from your local hardware store. If not we have them also. I will post you a link to our site, we have a video on how to set your pinion angle. It shows you the proper places to take the measurements from. If you need additional help give me a call.

i love my non adj BMR TA,,,i dont have a need to change things on a grocery getter, and im stock height, etc. Price was right as well. One of the very few parts i actually bought brand new. Very stout, well built piece.

metalmechanic

yes i have the BMR relocation bracket also, what would be reasons to change pinion angle, i am assuming it would be because of severe mods i have done to my car.The instructions that come with it seem pretty self explanitory. Ill start by trying to get it as close to the same angle that it is now. I asume i should change the relocation bracket first then mark the angle the the oem tq arm is in angle is the plane.

I think the two pieces will come apart once removed from the tranny,,,,but the lil black rubber parts that are attached to the two seperate sides will need to have the rivets holding them in removed,,i used a diegrinder to make quick work of it. Once those rubber halves are out, you will use the two metal parts to "sandwich" your red bushing....it took me a minuite to figure which side was what with the red bushing, but if you match the contours of the bushing to the ones in your two metal halves,,you'll get it. Be sure to grease up your TA end that goes in the bushing to make life a lil easier...i did my rear (M12 with BMR TA) on the ground first (TA attached to the rear) and lifted the whole unit in the car, starting with the tip of the TA into the red bushing.
