UMI Performance 82-92 GM F-Body Tunnel Mounted Trq. Arm Fits T5 700R4- No Loop - Red

If you're working on a 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird, especially one with a bit more power, you'll want to check out this tunnel-mounted torque arm from UMI Performance. This setup is designed to take the stress off your transmission's tailshaft by moving the torque arm's front mounting point from the transmission itself to a sturdy crossmember. This not only helps prevent damage to your transmission but also allows for easier adjustment of your suspension's instant center, which can significantly improve your car's 60-foot times and traction off the line. It's a crucial upgrade for anyone looking to put power down effectively.

UMI Performance built this torque arm to be a complete bolt-in solution, meaning no welding or drilling is required. The mounting plates are CNC machined from thick mild steel, and the cross brace is constructed from strong rectangular tubing. It uses Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings to connect the torque arm to the crossmember. These bushings are chosen specifically to absorb road vibrations and minimize the clunks you might get from stiffer setups, keeping the ride more comfortable while still providing solid control. The rear mounting plates are designed to fit factory rear ends as well as common aftermarket 12-bolt and 9-inch rears, and they even include QA1 rod ends for a solid connection. Plus, the on-car adjuster lets you fine-tune your pinion angle without removing anything, which is a big help when setting up your suspension.

This torque arm is made to work with both the 700R4 automatic and T5 manual transmissions and comes with a new crossmember that accommodates both. The whole assembly is finished in a durable red powder coat. It's a well-built piece designed to solve common traction issues like wheel hop and improve overall handling, especially during hard braking by reducing front-end nose dive.
