That housing looks REALLY good!

Would it be possible to fab a full length version of your TQ. Arm so that it could mount in the stock location or to a relocation kit such as THIS?

If so, could you PM me a price on a bare housing (w/o the brace) in stock width and a full length version of your TQ. Arm?

yes... a full length torque arm is available and part of the package at no extra charge. it mounts to the trans crossmember the same way as the tunnel mounted one.

Bringing this Back

Eric any more pics of your exhaust system? Especially where the TA bolts to the body of the car.

I have the same 4L80E/Driveshaft/Rear as you and It seems like I may not have the clearence you have??

If any one has any pics post them up, trying to figure out how to route my y-pipe exhaust system.

Thanks Eric, you must have changed the design with the driveshaft safety loop. I can always cut it off and relocated it like yours I guess. With the 4L80E and the TA mounting its tuff to do a y-pipe setup.

IF you have any tips let me know. I'll see if I can post a pic up as well.

Just noticed something, the loop is stabalized by two different points.
Here is a pic of mine

Eric it looks like yours does not have the portion going directly up to the center of the loop. Can I cut this off, I would think the single bar from the side going to the loop would be fine.

Havent seen this thread before, I actually have the same exhaust, flowmaster merge and 4" over the axle but no driveshaft loop.Cant say enough about this rear end setup.Lightweight and dead quiet, just a little added noise but very little but well worth it.

Ben, that is a completely different crossmember that we offer... if it would work better for you i can just swap you out. you have the crossmember for the traditional 3"-3 1/2" cvat back systems. this one in the pics is for custom duals or the 4 inch setups.

Eric,
How much for your true subframe connectors. I wasn't impressed with how mine had to be welded to the pinch flange that hangs under the car for added strength. They're not on your site.

Damn I want one of these! Nice to see it with a 4" merge, thats what I have. I have wanted one of these ever since the original thread was "look what I made" If I could only figure out how to squeeze it into the plans
