Is it safe to roll...?

Is it safe to roll my Trans Am without the torque arm attached to the transmission...as it doesn't have one. I've got to roll it, so I put my Moser 9" in with the UMI trailing arms, UMI panhard bar, Pro-Kit springs, and I've attached my stock torque arm for stability while it rolls. I just want to know if I secure the front of the torque arm with tie straps, will it be ok to roll on and off a trailer?

If by roll you just mean push it around, then yes it will be fine. Just don't drive it like that.

You can move it no problem, just don't jerk on your e-brake hard while it's moving or anything.
