Torque Arm Question... Would this Torque Arm work on a 98-02 as well?

Re: Torque Arm Question... Looks like it would... it might be one of those where you hav to drill a holes in the trans tunnel and the brace is bolted up in there... I am going to a torque arm like that made by Alston Racing up in Antioch Illinois.
Re: Torque Arm Question... Re: Torque Arm Question... I have been using a Random Tech torque arm since 2000 and I have been cutting 1.48-1.50's with my current setup, but I have drag shocks, bigazz slicks etc.
I am just removing and selling the R/T since I am doing a T400 conversion and need to get a T/A that is not mounted on the trans anymore.

Re: Torque Arm Question... Why not go with a Yank crossmember instead PSJ?

It'd also let you keep the lighter weight RT Torque Arm.
BTW, why would you buy a $600 Alston Torque Arm over a $250 Jegs Torque Arm, if they work off the same principle? I don't think I've read any evidence of either one being made with bad craftsmanship or anything. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Re: Torque Arm Question... I guess your advisors have their reasons. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I don't see why the arm itself wouldn't work fine, so long as you're not launching a 3800+lb car. I'm curious what their reasoning was, unless it's simply that the arm didn't have enough tensile strength to lift the front end through the 60' mark.
Also not sure what 700ft/lbs has to do with the torque arm directly, but it DOES sound badass! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Verdad Gallardo Re: Torque Arm Question... 1- My advisors feel that the R/T is not good for 9's.
2- I can get the Alston for less than $400, I think if you call up it's like $400.
3- I need a setup good for 700ftlbs of torque.
