Not sure if anyone ran into this before, but I'm fuming over the Spohn torque arm. Installation went great. Adjusting pinion angle went great. When I took it for a test drive, I heard a very distinct chatter from the rear. Brought it back in the shop, back up on jack stands and I find.....THE REAR YOKE HITTING THE TOP F#$%ING BOLT that goes in through the side of the bracket. NICE JOB SPOHN!!

The good thing is, it looks like I should only have to reverse the bolt. The bolt head is thinner then the nut and looks like it won't rub.

Sorry for the mini rant, but for $300 you would think that their torque made for the F body would be sent ready for the F body.

 

It IS ready, if you assemble it right.

Turn the bolt around and move on.

While you're at it, make sure you put the vertical bolts in with the nut on the bottom, like the factory did... while I've never had it or seen it happen, it SURE WOULD SUCK for the nuts to back off and the bolts to fall out....

 

yeah, wth were you thinking lol... it sucks but if you installed it correctly you wouldn't have complaints right? did you do it yet? how is it? do you recommend it?

 

Thanks Sofa, but the bracket and arm were assembled from Spohn. I'll need to disassemble to reverse the top bolt which is no big deal. The big deal is they sent it that way "ready for the F body"

 

yeah...what was I thinking. I like it other then Spohn's mistake. I would recommend it, hell of a lot beefier then the stock!!
