Thumbs up Thanks UMI! (Adjustable Torque Arm)

I just wanted to take the time to thank you for a very well made product. Your adjustable torque arm was extremely easy to install...one of the easiest installs I've done actually. No surprises, no fitment issues with my dual exhaust, nothing. Lucky for me, I was able to get the pinion angle pretty good on my first shot I didn't snap any pics, but can get some if someone really wants to see it.

I'll do my best to get under it and get some clearance shots tomorrow. No promises...but if I don't get it tomorrow, I should be able to get a couple this weekend.

As for which end first, I ended up putting the clamshell with the poly mount in first, and tightened the top bolt enough to get it started, but not all the way tight. I then slipped the torque arm in to the poly mount, and let it sit in place on the rear (the torque arm) while I tightened up the last top bolt on the clamshell. I then manipulated the rear end a little to get the bolt holes to line up, and dropped the bolts in. I found this much easier to do with the panhard rod out of the way (you can slide a jack under where the panhard rod connects to the rear end, and use that as a jack point to rotate the rear about the axles to line up the holes). After that, it was nothing more than adjusting it, dropping it on the ground, and taking it for a spin.
