UMI Performance 98-02 Camaro Torque Arm Relocation Kit – 4L80E

1998-2002 GM F-Body Torque Arm Relocation Kit – 4L80E

The torque arm relocation kit from UMI is designed to remove the front mounting point of the torque arm off the transmission and protect the tail shaft from damage. General Motors tail shaft mounted design works great for a stock driven vehicle however it is not designed to take abuse and hard launches. This setup replaces your transmission cross member with a new stronger cross member with a built in torque arm mount. The relocation kit is designed to fit the heavy duty GM 4L80E transmission and will work with virtually any stock style aftermarket torque arm as well as the factory torque arm (Must use bushing #3004 to use a stock torque arm). This unit is built using USA steel tubing, 3/16” mild steel mounting plates and includes all necessary hardware needed for the installation. The torque arm mount is laser cut from 1/4” thick mild steel and features a new clam shell for appropriately attaching the torque arm to the new cross member. Please use the FAQ’s below for additional information. Note: When running a factory torque arm you must purchase #3004 bushing below.
