UMI adjustable torque arm and 700r4/t5 crossmember relocation
Up for sale I have a UMI adjustable torque arm with a crossmember relocation kit for a 700r4 or t5 transmission. I've had this setup on my car for about 3 weeks now. It's still installed actually. I'm going back to stock setup in about 2 weeks. This "Track pack" is just a little too much for my current setup/daily driver. I'd consider a partial trade for a UMI non adjustable torque arm in likewise condition. Basically I am trying to presale my setup as I will be removing it in 2 weeks. I paid $500 for this setup with the shipping included. I'd like to get $400 shipped for it. Price is pretty firm because it's essentially a new part. Would consider trades for other thirdgen tpi parts, like 1.5/1.6 aluminum roller rockers, trick flow .23 heads for a 305, offer anything else?

I have it dialed in for street driving, and I took it out on the highway the other day, and I just had a lot of noise coming from my rear end, like a harmonic whoop whoop whoop sound. I have a stock setup motor and tranny and this is probably just overkill for my application. I'm looking to build a 300hp 305 tpi and I think the stock torque arm with a poly bushing will fit my needs. I just jumped the gun with my tax return when I bough this.

Well, I'm running a stock 305 tpi and a stock nwc t5. I was trying to build the chasis up and take stress off of the weak t5 bellhousing. I want to build a street able 300hp, on my 305. And I think a stock arm with a poly bushing will work just fine. I tried adjusting the pinion angle from -1 to -3 like the manual stated and -3 had the least vibration street wise. Took it on the highway and my rear end didn't like it. Also with a spherical mounting setup it shifts forwards and backwards with your motions, especially when your banging gears, (which UMI has stated is totally normal). I just don't like it. I guess it's just personal preference.
