Question Adj. Torque Arm Trans Crossmember vs. Non Adjustible

Hey Guys. I will be getting transmission crossmember with the TQ arm relocation off the transmission case.

Now I own all BMR and I would like to keep it that way.

But here is the questions.

I already own a BMR TQ arm that is adjustible, do we REALLY need to have an adjustible peice up front as well. I would put it in the stock location and adjust if needed off of the TQ arm itself.

Why would I need an Adjustible vs Non Adjustible?

Its for fine tuning the suspension. You can only adjust pinion angle with the torque arm, but on the TCC you can adjust the instant center of the vehicle. But in your case if you would like the stock mounting location, put the TA bracket bottom holes in the 4th hole from the bottom for a 6 speed and the 3rd hole from the bottom for an auto. That should get you dialed in.

Thanks so very much. I appreciate the advice. I am going to be looking underneath the car tommorrow to see what Broke and I suspect it has trans mount/TQ arm related.
