Default torque arm help and suggestions

I am looking for an aftermarket torque arm. Right now is a full bolt on and cam car that is lowered with bmr springs. I plan on doing heads and spray along with either a 12 bolt or 8.8 rear and running slicks. I do not want to have to weld a bar across the subframs for the torque arm to mount to. I am wondering if i need to get an adjustable torque arm since i will be getting an aftermarket rear? Also should i try and get the mounting point off the tail shaft? I have been looking at the spohn torque arm and the lg torque arm but i am open to any and all suggestions. please help me out.

I only know of one that takes the mount off the trans and you dont have to weld the crossmember in. Thats the spohn. But I have heard of people with lowered cars haveing problems with the new bolt in crossmember hitting. I have it and I have had it "rub" a couple of times. So I would think it would be a problem.

The G2 unit fits your criteria. It uses all the factory mounting points and is rugged as any Marlboro man ...

And LGM is currently selling all suspension at 15% off.
