I just put an ES Tranny mount in my 83Z T5. I was driving tonight and I heard loud noises from the floor pan. The top bolt that clamps the rubber torque arm to the tranny separated from the tranny!!! My torque arm is hitting the floor pan. Since the casing broke where the bolt goes what options do I have besides replacing the tranny. I saw that Spohn has a whole torque arm that replaces the crossmember under the tranny, however it is $355, is there a cheaper fix? Does anyone make an adapter to mount the existing torque arm somwhere else other than the tranny? Thanks

 

well you could replace just the tail housing of the trans, you gotta get one from an f-body tranny though
