If you still have a 2 piece driveshaft it won't fit, you need a one piece. V8 and V6 bodys are the same so it should fit. I have a UMI tunnel mount with a alm. DS , no problems.

Re: torque arm Relocation Crossmember

The trans mount if that is the poly one , you need to make a notch in the cross member so you can install the poly trans mount and space it up about 1/2 " so it is angled right. The TQ arm , I have no idea , I never seen one like that before. My UMI one mounts to the tunnel mount cross brace so it doesn't go back to the tranny. What is the part # on it ?

Re: torque arm Relocation Crossmember

i assume you have a 5-speed? If so, what tranny crossmember is that? If it's made for a v8 it won't work.

Re: torque arm Relocation Crossmember

i think you just wasted a lot of money. the v8 mounts sit farther back. well, i guess you could modify it and weld in a new mounting plate on the other side of that tubing.

Re: torque arm Relocation Crossmember

nah, i sent it back and got my money back off them, thats why i am looking for some thing thats made to bolt up to the v6 with out moding it ...

Re: torque arm Relocation Crossmember

I would recommend UMI tunnel mount. Their site has alot of pics of it , V6 or V8 it will work with. So if you ever swaped in a V8 it would still work. I've had mine for over a year, no complaints. Except if your lowered like I am , you need to watch speed bumps ETC. The mount sits low where it is mounted at the tunnel location.
