finally got mine installed. im a fan. for the price, its a well made piece. i thought i was gonna have clearence issues with the front mount but it turned out fine. the only clearence issues i has wer the rear mout hitting the floor board (which is kinda expected) and i had to trim the driveshaft loop mount to get it to clear the exhaust. for the price, im happy.
i hear rumors about clunking noises from the front mount. i found that if u use a washer as a spacer in the bushing, for the most part, it goes away.
seems to hook very well. even on my 555rs. very light.

doesn't anyone make a polyurethane bushing we can put in? i noticed that my midwest torque arm does not have the poly. i have not installed it yet (i have the long torque arm) so i can't comment on how loud it is. however, i went with the long because i was told it would possibly be a little quieter.

I'm glad you are happy with it, have any pics of the clearence issue towards the floor board? We have not encounted that as of yet. Also is the vehicle lowered and what hole do you have the pivot link in and what did you set your pinion angle at?
Any other questions please let me know or if you need help with anything.

its in the 2nd from the top hole, it was eye balled level and turned out to be pretty damn close to 0. the next day i borrowed an angle finder and set it to -2 per ur email instructions. ds angle was 0 and pinion at -2. i hit a big *** pot hole and the knocking noise stopped. lol. looks like it knocked a big enough dent in the floorboard, its a non issue now. and no i dont have any pics and its just got the hose mod done as far as lowering.

All our torque arms and cross members have a poly mount in the pivot link unless asked for our race version that has none.
