i recently heard that when a fellow fbody owner went to an aftermarket torque that was shorter than stock he/she noticed no improvements in traction and actually increased their 69 ft. times?!?!?! anyone else have anything to say abou it? i was going to upgrade my torque arm but maybe not now unless i am wrong.....

 

sounds like they never set the pinion angle when they installed the new torque arm

 

they either never set the pinion angle, or they had really crappy tires, and the tq arm allowed more power to be transfered to the tires, and they were not up to the task.

 

yea somethings got to be up with the guys setup. After I put the torque arm I noticed a huge gain in traction also the car drifts better also.

 

how do you go about setting the pinion angle? is it tough or can i do it when i put my new torque arm on?

 

I recently heard that the Earth is flat, too.

Follow the instructions that come with it.

 

so that means we'll all fall off the edge like Columbus?

 

We will if we put in aftermarket torque arms :sillylol:

 

oh okay makes more sence now :lala:

 

pinion angle is the key to getting it to work work, my spohn ta works well.

 

I just noticed my iroc has one already...

 

All f-bodys have torque arms. They're just stamped steel and not as strong as aftermarket torque arms.

The stars revolve around Earth, don't they?
