    well presented. always found it interesting that the only way to change the IC length on a torque arm setup is to change the length of the torque arm itself... while that is limiting compared to a 4 link, it does allow you to focus on IC height with the lower bars and your shock settings..... less is more sometimes.

    Just be be certain, if the front of the torque arm is lowered it will increase the bite, and if raised, takes away bite?
    I have 4 mounting holes and it is in the bottom on a car we just purchased.
    The lower control arms are at the correct angle according to your video.

    Kevin, When I did my Pinion angle setting (when did my TA installation) I used the Tremec app, which you can use with the iphone (or smart phone). I takes into account Crank pulley, driveshaft and diff angles reference. cool stuff. It works with all three angles. Just wanted to offer that idea. I'm sure you have many other ways to set that as well.

    Moving the front of the torque arm down and lowering lower control arm down on the rear end side adds bite? Making sure I understood that right, Thanks.

    • @KevinWilsonSBC
      @KevinWilsonSBC  4 роки тому

      Jimmy Lopez thanks so much for your questions! It depends on the car's Anti Squat line and how these mount points fall along that spectrum. In very general terms, if you lower the rear lower control arm mount point on the rear end and leave other mount points the same, it will increase your Anti Squat percentage. Lowering the torque arm front mount point will actually decrease your Anti Squat percentage in theory. In some of our more serious F-Body torque arm builds we have used a shorter torque arm to help speed up the reaction. Hope this makes sense in general terms. Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!

    I have a lowered 97 SS street/strip car with a Strange S60 rear all UMI tubular suspension including LCAs, adjustable torque arm that's stock length but mounts to their trans crossmember but not on the tailshaft of the trans.
    My question is if I'm trying to get the most forward bite with the long torque arm where should I set the front mount? In the lowest point with the LCAs also in the lowest mounting position or move the torque arm front mount one setting up from the lowest setting?

      Thank-you so much for taking the time to leave a comment and for supporting my channel! I don't take your views and support for granted. Not sure of your power levels and gearing and shocks, so at a high level front tq arm mount, higher will help with some, but the stock length tq arm is really neutral. The on the rear LCA is what adds bite. See this Part 2 video that goes into more detail on adding bite to F Body: ua-cam.com/video/vpMoOEG7WcA/v-deo.html

    I know this is a bit of old video, but I've got a question. What are the effects of moving the chassis end of the torque arm up and down on the mount? My car is on ss springs shocks that are destined for the garbage can. I've already got all the umi bars and torque arm on it. I have some new springs and shocks as well as some lca brackets in a cart ready to check out. When I lower the car, I know the pinion angle is going to change, so I'll have to fight that can of worms again. So my question is this... what should I do with the front mount? Move it up towards the floor to maintain what I've got or should I do something else?

    • @KevinWilsonSBC
      @KevinWilsonSBC  4 роки тому

      Daniel Burks thanks so much for your question! There are many factors to be considered so I need to be careful with these responses without a bunch more info. On a torque arm car you have be very careful with rear steer and not binding the torque arm. You could use the LCA's to put a very small amount of rear steer in it, like an 1/8" at the end of the axles. You will need to make sure the rear end is back centered after you put rear steer in it. I assume no wheelie bars, but if so you could use them to help correct the car also.

    My thinking Draw a vertical line at the front TA mount. Instant center is where the imaginary line front the LCA intersects with that vertical line. The front TA mount doesn’t change that much of anything with the IC.
    It is useful though if your can’t easily get your pinion angle adjusted with the adjusters.
    Your biggest changes to your AS % is the length of the TA and ride height/lca angle.
    No TA is solid mounted. None that are commercially available that I’m aware of. Even my madman that has a “solid mount” has a slide built into the arm. Others use a pivoting style mount. That kind of fore/aft movement is needed or the suspension binds.

    First I would like to Thank You for all the great content! Keep up the great work! Could you do a more in depth video on setting up a f-body like how to find the instant center, how to select the right coilovers and springs, and how to adjust rear suspension for radial and slicks.

    Amen, i ask so many people buying torque arms and control arms, where are your LCARBs? That 60$ bracket should've been on your car before that 500$ order..

    Lower center of gravity is not helping you accelerate in any way shape or form. It actually decreases usefull weigh transfer. Only increasing antisquat will return a lowered car to where it was with a higher center or gravity.

      jason birch thanks so much for your comments! My comment was centered around a lower center gravity gives you more ability to add more anti squat. In the video I said with a lower center of gravity you have a better ability to launch a car, implying I can more easily increase anti squat. Center of gravity height most certainly impacts how the Instant Center hits the rear and planting the tires. Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!!

    What spring rate and size would you use on an fbody? Low 9 sec car on a radial.
