MWC TA install help I've got the long TA with the trans crossmember. The old TA mount is in the way of the pivot. Does this whole part of the mount come off, or do I need to break the rivets and remove the rubber piece, or am I just doing something else completely wrong?

So after looking around, I realized I'm an idiot. I overlooked the nut on the other side holding the exhaust hanger, so now it's just hanging loose. Now the issue is how do I get it off? Does the whole tailshaft have to come off to get this off?
The mount has a stud built into it on one of the three fasteners. There's a short bolt, long bolt, and long stud. You may need to drop the trans down a bit to get the mount off the trans.
If you are having contact with the speed sensor then the torque arm front heim is adjusted too far out, or the wheelbase adjustment is too far forward. You can rotate the sensor 90 degrees as well to help if need be- removal not required to do so. The link barely moves during suspension travel.
torque arm is not installed yet, with the pivot link vertical it makes contact. here is a photo
Also, what is a good starting point for how much the ends get threaded into the torque arm ? how much of the threads are exposed past the jam nut ?

The sensor came out easy and I just rotated in the bracket.

Can anyone tell me how far the rod ends thread into the Torque Arm ? Looking for a starting point. The photo below shows the most I could thread them in and still able to get it mounted to the rear end.
