The new Moser M9 comes with a new Moser torque arm, that was designed to clear everything. Tim at Moser did a great job designing it. Some of you in the chassis business may recognize him. Tim worked for NHRA before coming to Moser. Tim is on the left in the photo. Bob

You can always cut a little on the tunnel and bend a piece of sheet metal to add clearance.

Thanks for all of your input. I feel better knowing its a common problem and it wasn't just installed wrong. I know theres sacrifices to make when modifying a street car but just needed some advise to make it a little more bareable. I have spohn lower control arms, panhard bar, sub frames, and torque arm and this is the only complaint I have about any of them. Spohn makes great products and I would recommend them to anyone. Alot of our sponsors make great products and I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from buying them.

From everything that I've read over the years, it doesn't seem that the issue is with the torque arms as much as it is with the differential being larger and cutting down on clearance.

That is a GREAT picture!!!!!!!!!!!!
