Thinking about getting one but don't know if I should get the body mount or tranny mount. I have Kooks LT headers and I know some T/A's have different models for the stock and Kooks exhaust compared to the other LT set ups. My car will be lowered with bmr 1.25 lowering springs. Btw let me know what your opinions are with your torque arms. Thanks,
Matt

an adjustable one so you can set your pinion angle and not wear out your U-joints. Most aftermarket ones non-adj have it set in-but thats for stock ride hieght. The mid mounts are awsome-but for a lowerd car the drop loop gives up ground clearance-there is the strait cross member-but depends on exhaust your running-a full leanth is still great with a relocation mount gives you a bit more self security. BMR and UMI both use high quality Heim joints and cant go wrong with either. Mild steel is all you need.

i have also been wondering this myself. I pretty sure you
would be better of with an adj tq arm because ur lowering it. I myself just picked up the same springs you got. MY question is how do a adjust the torque arm just right where its supposed to be when lowering the car 1.25 inch?
