UMI 1982-2002 F-Body Trans Mounted Adjustable Torque Arm
Product Description
Eliminate unwanted traction problems and transfer your power to the wheels by adding a UMI Performance adjustable torque arm. This aftermarket torque arm replaces the flimsy weak stock torque arm adding strength, rigidity and eliminating flex. This tubular torque arm bolts directly in place of the factory unit using existing mounting holes and requires no drilling or welding, it is a direct bolt-on. The torque arm is designed to eliminate wheel hop under hard acceleration and reduces 60-foot times instantly. This tubular set-up is supplied with a low deflection Energy Suspension front bushing designed to replace the stock rubber bushing and bolts in the existing clamshell. The rear torque arm mount is constructed entirely of 0.375%u201D thick CNC machined mild steel and is fully MIG welded. This set-up features on-car adjustability for easy pinion angle adjustments using a 4140 Heat treated adjuster and ¾%u201D QA1 Rod ends, truly the ultimate arm on the market at the most affordable price! Fits GM 10-Bolt rear-ends, Moser and Strange 12-Bolts as well as most 9%u201D housings.
Torque Arm Benefits:
- Eliminates wheel hop and solves traction problems - Reduces front end nose dive during braking - Solid construction prevents breakage and reduces down time - Allows for on-car pinion angle adjustments - Polyurethane bushing eliminates deflection - Bolt-on design requires no welding or drilling!
Build Features:
- Constructed of 1.250%u201D x 0.120%u201D DOM Seamless Steel Tubing - TIG Welded 4140 Chrome Moly Tube Adaptors - On-Car Adjuster Built using 4140 Chrome Moly Steel and Heat Treated for Maximum Strength - All Mounting plates are CNC Machined to insure hole to hole accuracy - Rear Mounting Plates use 0.375%u201D Thick Mild Steel and are designed to fit Stock as well as 12- Bolt and 9%u201D Rear-End Housings. - Rear Mounts feature Solid QA1 ¾%u201D Rod Ends and are attached using Grade 8 Hardware - Brilliant Durable Powder Coat

Chrome Moly- Chrome Moly version uses 1.250" x 0.095" 4130 Chrome Moly steel feature 100% TIG welded process. This adds increased strength and reduces product weight.
Rear Torque Arm Hardware Kit- We highly recommend purchasing a new hardware kit if running this torque arm on a stock rear, Strange or other similar rear-ends that use a straight through bolt design. OEM torque arm bolts will work however are slightly too short and may not fit correctly. If you are running a Moser Engineering 12-Bolt rear-end this kit is not needed, you must reuse hardware supplied by Moser Engineering. New hardware kit will work on Moser Engineering 9" rear ends.
