For the torque arm it has to mount on the transmission, none of the body mount torque arms to date work with true duals. For the driveshaft safety loop we have only been able to get the lakewood version to work.

Midwest Chassis has a tunnel brace to work with Short Torque Arms that works beatifully. I highly recomended. They might have a Tranny Relocation Mount to clear true duals.

I'm probably going to ditch my TSP Duals due to this problem, that and ground clearance is horrible; I plan on lowering it so yeah.

But if you plan on staying at stock ride height and get a tranny mounted torque arm your golden.

I have the TSP true dual exhaust system turned down before the rear end. I had to heat up the x-pipe and bend them up just a little because the turn downs was almost touching the ground. I also have Pacesetter LT Headers. I have UMI adjustable torque arm and torque arm relocation bracket to get the torque arm off the tail shaft of the transmission. I also use a Lakewood driveshaft loop because the bracket needs to be mounted above the exhaust. Everything works well and I have plenty of clearance.
