This is my Jegester torque arm, she is great, tons of traction, great off the line!!

Also is my newly balanced alum drive shaft, I got it from a junk yard for $40 and it only cost my $100 to get it fixed/balanced to work perfect in my car. She makes getting up into higher RPM's a lot quicker and eaiser.

 

also Jegester Sub Frame conectors, bolt/weld in

The fit great also!!

 

Is it the non adjustable or new adjustable torque arm?Did it really made a big difference in traction?

 

I believe that it is the adjustable one. It mad a nice difference. For the money you cannot go wrong. I paid only $150 on ebay, new. They sell in jegs for $250 new.

Jegester products are cheap and work good!

 

The Jegster arm is non-adjustable. Ive got one sitting here too, and its a great quality piece. Havent installed it yet, but I know someone whos cutting 1.5 60's with it.

 

jegs now has a adjustable torque arm http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...07&prmenbr=361Also Edelbrock has a adjustable T-arm coming out next month thats going to put a hurting on everybody else making trans mount T-arms price wise.

 

Woo, I been wondering exactly how they mount to the body. How easy was it to install? Guess you had to remove your interior for some hole-drilling?

 

Yes, I had to take out my carpet (seats not a prob, never use back seats anyway, all racing you know) and for the most part my entire consel. It was not that bad, if you already have back seats taken out it takes no time at all.

I really like it a lot! She just seems stout, like she wants to get on them back wheels and go, I like that lots....


Sorry, to correct myself, mine is not adjustable, but it is just as great! Bolts up with no hassel, and if I decide to change my tranny out, heck, it stays and the tranny goes.

 

its funny i have been tryin to get people to get this bar for over 6 years now glad to see them out there they work !!!!!!!!!!!now that they have an adjustable model i guess its time for me to upgrade...

 

AMEN brother!! I've been eyeing that Jegs arm for awhile, but did'tn buy it before since it was non-adjustable. Now that I got the new TH400/wbrake I need something different and now the upgraded one Jegs arm will be bought. Cant believe it took them this long to think of that I think sales will go up now!!

 

Hey Gofaster, so you cant use the consel??? would there be a problem installing the back seat if one wanted. Looks like the cats meow

 

he had to take out the console and back seats to install the piece....then you put everything back in of course...

 

whats the difference between a jegster piece and the spohn piece, saying that they are both adjustable and why is it being adjustable so special?

 

you can change the pinion angle to compensate for lowered suspension or even track conditions

 

My problem with the jegster arm (or the better version made by alston racing) is that it requires drilling 14 holes into the sheetmetal of the car ... and it doesn't lift up on the frame.

Just like it was said already, I did put everything back in once it was installed. I do not use back seats, however, you could put them back in no prob. Once you get the carpet back down, you cannot even tell that there is bolts under the carpet, it is still just flush as before, it's nice, you just cannot tell I drilled holes in the floor pan, nothing.

The biggest difference between sphoon and jegster's tq arm is you can use the jegs tq arm with ANY transmission, unlike the sphoon, which is tranny specific.

I recommend jegester products to anyone, like I said I am running the sub frame connectors (great product, fits in great) and the tq arm, fit nice, great price and works great!!!

 

that TA appears to be quite a bit shorter than stock, can you possibly get a measurement of it?

 

For the jegs tq arm, I already did it when installing it.


It is about 28" long, give or take if I remember right.

 

where is that measured from? the center of the bushing, to the rear mounting hole?

 

yes, from the end where the tq arm connects to the base to the end where it mounts to the axle.

 

The torque arm pushing up on the tunnel can't be any worse than than it being on the trans tail shaft trying to lift the trans up.The jegster tunnel mount looks like it would spread the force out a bit.

 

you could always skip the bolts and weld it right to the tunnel. You have to take the carpet out anyhow

 

This is so true... No direct force in one spot, more like (because of the base) spread out to a wider load.

 

old thread..but i wanted to add one question.......does the tranny have to be out of the vehicle to install the plate on the jegs torque arm?

 

by the looks of it, no

 

No.
