I've been running the original Spohn torque arm for 5+ years with no issues.

I've had mine for a year, and its performed flawlessly...I was also curious about going to true duals with the TA...Anyone running true duals with this TA? If so pics please...

I've had the Spohn TA, both early and later versions in the car since 1999. The bolts and the mouning pads on the chassis are still intact.

I have it and it is a very strong and well-built piece. No problems here.

It comes with upgraded, longer Grade 8 bolts.

I just built my buddy one for his formula with true duals running down the tunnel, the crossmember bends above the exhaust instead of under the exhaust to save ground clearance.

I am going to start producing some on a small scale for sale, and havent decided if I want to offer a true dual version (its quite a bit more complicated than the standard version).


Ill post pics if you want to see it on there with the exhaust.
