Re: torque bar?
Not sure about any aftermarket torque arms, but the stock ones just slide into a rubber gromet that bolt to the trans. I've always just slide it into the grommet then bolted it up to the rear from there.

Re: torque bar?
there should be some sort of clamshell-type mount with integrated rubber bushings, that hinges on the bottom and can be bolted shut on the top.. there will be 3 bolts on it.. lets see if i can get some kind of picture.. theres what it should sort of look like.. 2 bolts on the bottom through the bottom of the trans tailshaft, and one up top to hold the mount closed..
