is this only available from spohn? noone else? $500 is steep

 

you can buy a driveshaft loop for under $50 through summit or jegs, then buy whatever aftermarket torque arm you like. jegs brand, bmr, spohn, etc etc

 

BMR's has an optional ds loop. Extra $40 I think.....

 

whats bmr? yeah , but if i buy the loop seperate i have to bolt it thru floor no? i like the idea of it being built into the tourque arm

 

BMR is one of the biggest suspension companies around.
The ds loop they sell welds to thier tq arm crossmember.
I think Dans87GTA paid like $400 total with the ds loop and shipping. Got it from Thunder Racing, took like 4 days to deliver.

 

i just got the spohn torque arm/trans crossmember/ drive shaft loop/ and the spherical rod ends for 415 i think, but i live 45 mins from them so i picked it up there. but hands down it will not disapoint you unless the car is lowered, the loop and cross member are about 2" at least lower then the stock crossmember.grrrrrrr....i found out the hard way with my front end lowered about 3 inches...but the spohn stuff was still worth it to me. torque arm not mounted to the trans is a heck of an upgrade. the stock set up is week. i dont know if other companies are not mounted to the trans like the spohn. but if you want one of the strongest set ups....the extra money for the spohn is worth it. if i had to guess the stock transmember and torque arm maybe are 15-20lbs. the spohn stuff all together is at least 3 times that....lol..trust me i know when i was putting the damn toque arm in it slipped down in the front and hit me in the head.....lol

 

The only DS loop on the torque arm that Spohn sells is the rear mounted loop. thats it. All the others are on the x-member

 

rear mounted as in back by the diff? - so a ds loop that could still let you poll-volt if you throw a front joint?

 

Its for a dual loop setup. The only way that Steve sells them is if you get the front loop..

This is the best pic that I have of it.

 

- that's cool. Had me worried there for a minute.....
