How much does the Torque Arm move forward and backward? Only the bushing gives, not the slider adjusting mechanism, right?
Seems I don't have the shorter T-50 torque arm, as it's the same length as what was on the auto trans in the car.
It's close to the right length, though. One bolt hole off.
So my buddy is wanting to cut the forward hole off the bracket and reweld it to the back of the bracket so that I'll have all three bolts attaching the torque arm to the T-50 trans. I'm not particularly worried about having all three bolts on there, but I'll go along with his notion.
I'm more worried about adjustability forward/backward of the mount/bushing. I'm thinking when the car is back on the ground (up on lift, now), everything will settle and the torque arm will bottom out on the trans and be in a bind.
Any good methods for shortening a Torque Arm, if this method fails?
