If you want serious performance, handling, and traction when you're at the
dragstrip, AutoX, or road racing; then you need a Spohn Performance fully
adjustable 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 wheel hop
- 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 cross member
- Changes the instantaneous center and leverage point from stock
- Provides adjustable pinion angle
- Poly version utilizes polyurethane front mount to keep noise at a
minimum
- Rod ended version utilizes a QA1 extra high strength, chrome
moly spherical rod end with Teflon®/Kevlar® self lubricating race for
those who demand the best in bind-free performance and
strength
- FREE angle finder included to set pinion angle
Build Specifications:
- Constructed of 1.25" o.d. x .120" wall DOM mild steel
tubing
- TIG welded 4130 chrome moly threaded tube adapters
- Heavy-duty 3/8" thick laser cut steel rear housing mounting bracket
- Heavy-duty mild steel transmission cross member with integral torque arm
mounting system
- Polyurethane bushing front mount for minimal road noise, Grade 8 hardware
is supplied. Integral grease fitting allows for lubrication of the fluted
polyurethane bushing
- Rod ended version utilizes a QA1 extra high strength, chrome
moly spherical rod end with Teflon®/Kevlar® self lubricating race for
those who demand the best in bind-free performance and strength.
Grade 8 hardware is supplied.
- Unique rotating front torque arm mount, 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
mounting plates via two 3/4"-16 NFT x 5/8" bore x 7/8" thick
solid steel rod ends. These are solid rod ends, not spherical bearing rod
ends, so noise is of no concern.
- Integral Pinion Angle Adjuster between the bottom rear solid 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.
- Entire package is a complete bolt-in assembly using existing
mounting points on the vehicle. No drilling or welding is required!
- NHRA rules require a driveshaft safety loop on any vehicle running quicker
than 13.99, or on any car running slicks. NHRA rules call for a loop
with at least .250" wall thickness, located no more than 6" from
the front u-joint. All Spohn Performance driveshaft safety loops meet every
NHRA specification requirement in both build construction, and mounting
location.
- Available powder coated bright red or gloss black.
- 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 the OEM rear or an aftermarket 12
bolt or Ford 9" rear
By request of our customers, we now offer the option of getting your
torque arm with a front and rear driveshaft safety loop. NHRA rules
call for a front driveshaft safety loop to prevent catapulting of the vehicle in
the event of a front u-joint or shaft failure. While a rear u-joint or shaft
failure will not catapult the vehicle, it will take out anything in it's way, ie.
rears, suspension components, brake lines, floor boards, etc. Protect yourself,
and your investments, and play it safe by containing the front and the rear of
the driveline.
NOTE: Do not get a rear driveshaft safety loop if your car
is lowered.
Now Available: The ultimate in bullet-proof lightweight
strength, 100% TIG welded chrome moly construction! Same as above, but
torque arm is constructed entirely from 1.25" x .095" 4130 chrome moly
tubing. Make your choice below.
