Help identify this torque arm

i picked this up at a yard sale, the guy told me he bought it on ebay, and couldn't use it cause it was missing the tranny mount. i bought it for 20 bucks. now I need help identifying it so i can buy the tranny mount.

I believe someone said they asked spohn to make them a trans crossmember with the tq arm mount at a different length than what is normal.

Re: Help identify this torque arm

because of the slide linka t the end, it almost looks like jegster, from Jegs. Looks like an oldie, i dont like how thin the axle side mount is.

Re: Help identify this torque arm

I agree with the toggle link at the front. Don't know who makes it. I think you would have to buy the transmission mount that includes the toggle link attachment. Unless it is short and hooks to a bar that is connected to the subframe connectors. Couple of styles out there.

Re: Help identify this torque arm

looks like a spohn tq arm.....but the one that uses a body mounted instead of trans mount........it has a crossmember that bolts to it and uses a "shackle design" to connect to the crossmember

^ what he said

I still say jegster, but with all the missing pieces, rust/corrosion and the flimsy rear mount, i would scrap it and look into something else
