SEE NOW your THINKING!!!

So is this going to be available as a total ExtReme Rear Torque Arm kit?

Also, is the removable front torque arm mount (that forms part of the driveshaft loop) replace the version in what is now the "standard" rear torque arm suspension?

Will this work with the existing set up? I remember you said when the extreme sub released you had no plans of change the torque arm.

:ohsnap:

That ExtReme Rear Torque Arm looks interesting. a seems a bit involved for my skill level for installation, but nothing Richie can't handle.
Warhawk is looking for a new rear setup hear in the near future. :relax:

I'm no expert on either, but the installation seems similar to the Lateral Dynamics 3-link of old.

Hey CalifConsruct. . .what's the buggy in the background of your profile pic???

You on Race_Dezert.com???

yes it will replace the existing/current but both will be available.
this is an OPTIONAL front mount with the full width cross member and subframe connectors.

Yes in a 67-69 Camaro. not in a Nova YET. the nova floor has different cross braces in it so we need to do a completely different one for that car

we have not changed the torque arm at all we have don some improvements in the material we use it is now made from Domex which is a ballistic resistant material. plus we have added some more mounting plates to the upper rear cross member to allow it to be mounted through the trunk floor for added integrity

Well it is more involved obviously than our current on BUT no more difficult than the DSE subframe connectors just more, it ties the entire floor together in 2 directions and provides better exhaust clearance and a drive shaft loop.

IMHO ...

The DSE, Art Morrison, Roadster Shop & Speedtech front clips are all well built & include quality components.

After measuring & running calcs on all of them, I'm clear they each have good bump steer & camber gain.

The notable differences (advantages) of the Speedtech eXtreme clips & frames are:
* 100% Ackerman for increased grip on inside front tire.
* A spindle custom designed for this suspension ... not the other way around.
* Roll Center above ground in dynamic conditions ... and in exact optimum location ... for increased front end grip ... and corner entry stability.
* Fits 315 front tires with clearance for 30° of steering.
* Increased caster capacity for optimum tire contact patches on both front tires. (Slugged for 7° to 9° static caster ... plus 0.6°-2.0° caster gain in dive).
* A real racing power steering rack from Sweet ($900) ... with dual power to live forever & excel at turning sticky 315's ... instead of reproduction/remanufactured production car rack from Mavel ($300).
* 3-piece race style front sway bar with Speedway Engineering chromoly bars offering a range of rates from 400# to 1300#.
* Lastly is the option to come with Ridetech or JRI shocks with digressive pistons & my modern secret sauce, high grip valving.
