More like reinforced torque arm. I'm waiting for a new poly mount and decided to weld some 1/4" thick plates to the stock arm. I plan on getting an aftermarket arm later this year. I'm sure the poly mount will benifit more than the reinforced plates. just finished painting it.

 

Trying to post a picture.

 

I hope you don't have driveshaft interference..

other than that.. looks good.

 

Sorry to bring up an old post but...

Thats and interesting idea, to use the plates to help with flexing, i would use a little different design, triangles, but anyways

Did it interfear with the drive shaft as mentioned above?

 

It turned out, I had to remove the last two peices, because of interference. I should have welded to the other side.

 

Could you post how dimentions of that torque arm?
Or at least how long it is?
I realy want to build one but I don't have one over here with me to copy.

 

i have that torque arm in my car. its from a 6-speed ls1.little tougher,ALOT heavier. have you ever seen a broken torue arm? they always brake at the rear where it bolts to the rear end. thats where you should reinforce. even the bmr torque arms brake there. jacked up that a car that runs 10.20''s can rip apart a $330 torque arm. should be stronger but thats the way the cookie crumbles.......

 

It's just the stock torque arm reinforced. Same length.
