If you need bullet-proof strength, serious performance, improved handling, and pavement digging traction when you're at the dragstrip, AutoX, or road racing; then you need a Spohn Performance Pro-Series torque arm, here's what it'll do:
Attaches to the rear axle and controls rear end torque during acceleration, transferring this energy into the tires, increasing straight line traction
Reduces nose-dive during braking
Eliminates wheelhop
Increases sidebite during corner exit acceleration
Bolt-on system does not require complete interior removal as with other kits
NO FABRICATION, WELDING OR DRILLING REQUIRED - 100% BOLT-IN INSTALLATION!
Removes the torque arm pivot point from the rear of the transmission to the supplied crossmember
Changes the instantaneous center and leverage point from stock
Provides adjustable pinion angle
BUILD SPECIFICATIONS:
Constructed of TIG welded 1.50" o.d. x 0.120" wall (main beams) and 1.25" x 0.095" wall (bracing) 4130N chrome moly tubing
TIG welded 4130N chrome moly threaded tube adapters (with dual plug welds)

Polyurethane bushing front mount version for minimal road noise. Integral grease fitting allows for lubrication of the polyurethane bushing
Rod ended front mount version utilizes an extra high strength chrome moly spherical rod end with Teflon self lubricating race for those who demand no bushing deflection and the best in BIND-FREE performance and STRENGTH.
DEL-SPHERE front mount version utilizes an extra high strength chrome moly Del-Sphere pivot joint for those who demand no bushing deflection and the best in STREET-FRIENDLY BIND-FREE performance and STRENGTH
Unique rotating front torque arm mount (THRUSTATOR), this system allows the torque arm to travel fore/aft which is VERY necessary with a torque arm suspension system. Solidly mounting the front of the torque arm causes the suspension to bind and hurts your car's handling drastically. The front rotator tube has an integral grease fitting to allow for proper lubrication.
Rear of torque arm mounts to the 3/8" thick steel rear housing mount via two 1"-12 NFT x 1" bore x 1 3/8" thick chrome moly spherical rod ends with Teflon self lubricating race. Grade 8, 1" bolts and 1" nylock nuts are supplied.
Integral 1"-12 threaded 4140 chrome moly pinion angle adjuster between the bottom rear rod end and the bottom rear torque arm tube allows for easy pinion angle adjustment. A simple turn of the wrench will give you over 6 degrees of pinion angle adjustment, it's that simple.
This is a PROVEN PRODUCT being run on some of the fastest F-Bodies in the country!
Rear mounting bracket is designed to fit on OEM or aftermarket rear ends
