Looking to pick up a torque arm soon. What kind of front mount are people running? The bushing insert deal or a rod eye type. This is a street/strip car. mostly strip. but i did go all rod in the back... but whatever. just what are you guys using and happy with? lol

You will get many different responses to that question but we feel the way our torque arm and crossmembers are designed are the best option for street strip vehicles. We have customers running a variation of times and one that runs as well as 7.58 at 178MPH with our off the shelf stock style mounting torque arm and crossmember.

No different than what is pictured here.


We do offer a long arm version as well that will come with the proper crossmember but utilizes the same pivot link. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Go short arm, which are all rod/round bushing ends.

So it really doesnt matter? any advantage to one over the other?

Poly bushings will bind the suspension used in any position. If you are looking for performance rod end is the only way to go.

The MWC torque arms for street/strip use incorporate the best of both worlds by integrating a poly bushing in a pivot link, and a heim joint in the arm itself. This combo works the best to still isolate the torque arm from the body with the poly bushing connection at the crossmember, then the torque arm connects to the pivot link with a heim. Full articulation without the bind of a poly bushing all in one.

Sorry, yeah midwest is correct. I meant poly bushing as opposed to stock style where the arm goes through a hole in a bushing.
