I am considering relocating my torque arm mount to the crossmember instead of on the tailshaft of my T5.

Does anyone know of a company that sells an aftermarket crossmember to achieve this? I did see Spohn sells that crossmember for the T56, but I did not see one for the T5.

If it comes down to it I can always fabricate a bracket on my existing cross memeber.

Or, is it not worth the time/effort? My thought was if I can put less stress on my T5 I am better off in the long run.

 

yeha i'm looking for a crossmember with provisions for the torque arm mount to it.

 

From what I understand the idea behind moving the arm down to the crossmember is to prevent breaking the trans mount every other year/month/whatever (depending on how you drive ).

 

Yes Steve sells a T-5 one, or at least, did; I have one sitting in my garage, left over from before I swapped in a T-56.

 

does anyone make one for automatics? i really don't need a torque arm.

 

Same one fits both T-5 and 700

Clicked on the link at the top of the page yet?

 

do you mean hawks link?

i still can't find a crossmember with the torque arm mount

 

Maybe that one. Yeah, maybe. That's it. Maybe.

But - I'm warning you, DO NOT click on the Spohn Performance link up there; you might be able to find out about Spohn Performance's parts if you did that, maybe even see what versions of torque arms he offers.

 

Wait. Why would you want to get rid of your torque arm

 

sphon doens't make it.

let me be clear.


I need a Trans Mount for an automatic. I would like the torque arm mount to be on the Crossmember. i don't want to buy a new torque, at least not yet.

The reason why I would like this, is because the tranny I am using Does NOT have a torque arm mount on the tail shaft

 

Hi,

Call Spohn and explain what your doing
and see if he will sell you just the crossmember
