relocated torque arms + x pipe duals....
relocated torque arms + x pipe duals....
this is probably a dead horse
i searched and the majority of threads i have come across are OLD, like 2003 old
so i'm wondering if any one has gotten a tunnel mount torque arm too clear duals with an x-pipe yet
i prefer something along the lines of duals that are dumped before the axle, meaning the x-pipe is going too be right around the area where the tunnel brace mounts
right now i have a Global West traclink and it clears my Summit 3" universal x-pipe kit and full size Flowtech Afterburner mufflers with out any issue at all (kickass torque arm BTW!!)
but i might be switching too a Moser 9" (currently Moser 12bolt) and the traclink will not fit on a 9" rearend. i know this because the guy i bought it from tried too make it work and couldnt. (part of the 9" 3rd member interferes with the tq arm mount, (Global West Traclink specific issue with Ford 9's)
so if i do swap, i will need a new torque arm and too me a trans mounted torque arm is out of the question and stock is too because my stocker came out looking like a pretzel...quite literally
my other option is too use a tq arm like some of the stock eliminator guys use but it is very very loud on turns from what i have been told straight out of the horses mouth...great for track straight line use but not too great for a driver
has there been anyone brave enuf too make this work yet?

Re: relocated torque arms + x pipe duals....
switching exhausts is out of the question. i just put this on there and then the 9" deal came along
i'll probably end up going with the modified stock torque arm.
