Default Just installed UMI Torque Arm...

Pretty easy install, biggest pain was getting the bushing housing out and drilling the old bushing off. Kinda had to jack up the rear to get the back to line up but besides that is was cake. I could do it in 30 minutes if I had to do it again. Car will not "hop" anymore, stays planted and strait. The biggest thing I noticed was how much better the ride was. Kinda like when you 1st install subfarmes but even more then that, the car is droped and it feels like it takes the bumps in the road alot less rough. Anyhow I would recommend the UMI stuff to anybody, realy high quality.
