The stock TQ arm will work fine and have plenty of clearance Clarence. UMI sells one just for duals though. Check the TD FAQ and you'll see a pic and some info.

if you do get an aftermarket one... a chassis mounted one for that matter, you would more likely want to put that on before your duals as most setups don't clear the TA

....basically custom true duals is your only option

Only option with a CHASSIS/BODY mount tq arm, just to clarify. With the stocker, or the trans mount from UMI, you should be fine.

Well I was confused.

Didn't mean to sound like a super-douche.

Thanks guys, i'm thinking about a custom set-up too. either way i cant decide which muffler or bullet. Do you think the dynomax bullets would be any louder with my L.T.'s,ORY into a loudmouth 2 ? Just really lookin to get rid of the rasp...

see Casey... he's going custom duals either ways

normally any duals will be louder and have a different tone than any other cat-back. Plus rasp starts to be a non-issue and the scavaging effect increases.

oh and your a joke for choosing the same setup I'm about to put on in two weeks... custom duals with dynomax bullets dumped... are you dumping them?

For the torque arm, you'll want a factory replacement part #s: 2205 or 2206. Also, they sell a torque arm relocation kit part#'s 2207-2210 depending on year and tranny.
