I've been searching around for a T56 torque arm mount everywhere and can't seem to find one. Has anyone bought one anywhere before?

try ls1tech most of us just run a off trans mounted torque arm since your upgrading your car for performance so no need for it

T56 torque arm mount is the same as the T5 mount. Get an 84+ Manual transmission torque arm mount for an F-body and you will be fine.

I would avoid crossmember mounted torque arms. They have been known to rip apart the frame rails where the crossmember attaches, especially with 4th gen transmissions since the transmission mount is 2 inches farther back - it puts even more torque against the mounting holes on the frame rails than a thirdgen trans does.

I would spend the $15 on ebay for the T5 mount or build a custom standalone crossmember for the torque arm mount.

wow never saw that yet.. im glad I made my own mount and mounting points.. never was a fan of the off set mounts you get from vendors. I will say though Ive seen several tail housing failures and TQ arm failures from using the stocker and stickies

This is why I went with a BMR extreme torque arm

Re: T56 torque arm mount
Thanks for the info. As of now, I have the Hawks conversion crossmember and the T5 torque arm mount that was originally on my car before the swap.
