where my torque arm connects to my Moser 12 bolt .. the clearance is near none to the body tunnel causing it to hit the body at EVERY bump any ideas on how to fix this its making me not to even want to drive it anymore

 

I had to grind off part of the tq arm mounting bracket(the entire first top hole) and problem solved. Very common problem you have, a grinder is your solution my friend!

 

also make sure everything is on center

 

Hello,

This is very common with aftermarket torque arms and larger rear ends. It is even worse if you lower the car. The torque arm is bigger than factory and the rear end housing is larger than factory. If you lower it the body it now closer to the torque arm.

First we recommend to check the rear end and see if it is centered under the car. If you don't already have one you will need an adjustable panhard bar which can be used to move the rear end and possible gain some clearance.

Also what you can do is take a hammer and a piece of wood and pound that area in to "clearance" it for the torque arm. Or after a few good launches it should clearance itself.

If you need any help let me know. Thanks,
Ryan

 

You need to be using the alternative set of mounting holes on the bracket.

Take and trim the set of holes you are currently using off and it will allow the bracket to slide in tighter to the housing and this will help with your clearance issues.

 

"BFH" big F%*#ing hammer. I had to do that with my Moser 9" and BMR T/A. I didnt need to grind anything though, yours may be different

I made the same mistake with my Moser 9". Moved it to the other set of holes and it was great. If you look down the tunnel, I am going to guess your torque arm is not running parallel with your driveshaft as set up right now.

 

exactly what I was going to say...

this will solve the problem and you wont need to beat the car...
