We don't have them available yet. We are still waiting for our bushings from Energy.

I talked to the guys at MWC and they are coming out with a long arm with relo crossmember. They quoted me a price of around $450 as a package for both. I just called them yesterday and they said soon...but they also said that 3 months ago.

Our 2205 full length adjustable torque arm and 2207 relo bracket (for M6) is pretty awesome. It's a tried and true setup available immediately (or in 4-7 days if we are out of stock)...

The full length was designed around TSP true duals.

I talked to Founders and they said they are still waiting on bushing. Also that they are going to be selling a short TA first. Then i guess when they get a auto LT1 and LS1 car they will start on the standard TA

For as long as you guys have been waiting for this Founders release you could have had the difference saved for a UMI. That one can purchase the UMI adjustable transmount for $285 from WS6Store seems odd to be waiting... waiting... waiting...

$390 for a UMI adjustable tunnel mount with loop from WS6Store... this thread was started 9 weeks ago. Save $10 a week and voila! You've got enough to buy the UMI (that is, if one had "cash in hand" to buy a Founders).

Further, Ryan comes in here -- not to steal thunder from Founders -- but to offer assistance to those asking for a competitors product... that is a DISCOUNT on a GP. What sort of response does he get?

I'd personally be up for a GP on a UMI torque arm and relo bracket. Seems like other shops are just too far out on getting their products to market.

UMI here with relo hooked to a 9". TSP TD's and no problems with anything. Stout piece. 550rwhp/535rwtq LS7 in my bird. Slam gears all the time.

Our torque arms are proven to be reliable and take the abuse... they are also USA made right here at UMI.

Just a thought. If we can see enough interest I can come up with a price!

Ryan

Could you give details on what the price would be and how many people you would want on the group purchase. I know you want to see some interest first but if it's a good price a lot more people will come on board. I can start a new thread with the information you give me in the GP section.

I personally need a long adjustable torque arm and relocation bracket.

I made a thread in the GP requests to gauge interest. Post up if you want in on a GP for the UMI torque arm here...

Oh c'mon. It wasn't that bad was it

It's probably the route I'll be going also... Just too much time and I NEED a full length.

You're retarded if you think pissing in someone's else's thread is cool. There is a million UMI threads for that guy to post in.

I've been called worse by better

I wouldn't call it pissing... Ryan didn't come in to bash Founders whatsoever. He simply proposed an option: if people don't want to wait, he'd be willing to help with a GP since he understands Founders offers really affordable suspension options -- yet doesn't have the product people are asking for.

Well everyone already knows that so it doesn't really need to be stated here.
