How does the Alum DS loop bolt to the car, or TA? I have an aftermarket TA, but it's a tranny mount, so I assume that the Alum. one will not work?

QUOTE (Black_Z28 @ Dec 1 2009, 03:09 PM)  How does the Alum DS loop bolt to the car, or TA? I have an aftermarket TA, but it's a tranny mount, so I assume that the Alum. one will not work? The Aluminum DSL is bolted thru the tunnel, on each side with 3/8" alloy hardware. There are backing plates included that are placed right next to the cross pan interior brace - you can just make out the pass side backing plate in this pic - right under the shifter: There is another backing plate on the drivers side. They overlap the flange of the interior pan brace. The Aluminum DSL will interfere with a OEM style TA that mounts to the trans. It was designed specifically for the lightest weight solution using a UE TA. It may work with other short TA's.

Cool, I have been reading up on those UE TAs, and I may upgrade to one in the future. Trying to figure out if I should get a Watts Link or UE TA. Just haven't decided which one to go with yet.
It's winter, so I guess I have time to decide. Not sure I want to cut my car up too much, since it's still mostly a weekend car, then a RR car. So, I might have to lean towards the other DS loop. Thanks for the info. |
