Spohn Adj Torque Arm FS

Spohn Adj Torque Arm, tunnel mount, long tube header cross piece (sits pretty low, not reccomended for a lowered car) red powder coat, like new, no scratches, dents, or dings. Works as advertised, eliminates wheel hop, and nose dive when braking, selling because I cant deal with the clunks and bangs anymore. Sells new for about $400, my price is $300 (plus shipping if required)

edit: Oh yeah, its got the front driveshaft loop too. I've got a spare tunnel mount without the loop as well, both go with.

No bushing on the joint where it attatches at the tunnel. Greasing it copiously helps some, but imagine gnomes with hammers every time you shift....

If there was something to eliminate the clunking, I wouldnt be selling it. Its a nice peice for what it does (and it <is> very effective at eliminating wheel hop), but heim joint to heim joint hard mounted on the tunnel is going to be noisy. I've read posts by people that have them that claim thiers dont make noise - all I can figure is they are deaf or have an incredible stereo that the volume broke off at full loud - I've tried everything these guys have suggested to eliminate the issue to no avail.
Its a track peice - period dot. Noise harshness and vibration comes with it, if there wasnt a compromise, then GM would offer them as an upgrade along with a solid shaft shifter and a free flowing exhaust. I like to drive my car on the street more than the strip, so I'm exploring a different but not as effective torque arm.

... anyway sorry for the rant, I have an offer at this time, awaiting funds. I'll post up if it falls through.
