What are you F-body guys who are primarily streetcars and some autoX using for torque arms? Right now I'm stock. I have been bent on the idea of a global west trac link after the SOTP feel in a friend's car. But now I'm thinking a simple full length adjustable like the UMI 2205 should do the job without feeling too noticeable and noisy. What's your opinion?

For autox, youd want to stick with a full length style arm. A short length one with it's different leverage will plant tires better during accelleration but hurt the ability to brake just as much, and probably increase chances of brake hop quite a bit.
How much though is the real benefit of going from the stock torque arm to a full length tubular torque arm? What are the benefits. This is all I can think of: -decrease chances of brake hop -adjustable pinion angle for adjustable TA's -any notice in difference between accelleration or braking??? I put on a UE decoupled torque arm last year. I'm still tuning around with it, but the traction under accelleration was instantly better. It's a great arm but a little bit more work to install compared to a normal torque arm. |
