You need the torque arm on there unless you want to do some damage to your drivetrain and suspension.

I would replace it with a better TA like BMR,UMI, etc.

That is where you load pictures of your cars so others can see them.

Moved from intro forum.

You need a TQ Arm, replacing the stock one is a good idea since the stocker sucks.
