Working independent of the leaf springs, the torque arm has the ability to aid traction while allowing the spring to perform its natural function of supporting the vehicle. This is not possible with traditional traction bars since loading the suspension essentially turns the front portion of the leaf spring into a solid link, limiting the springs intended function. With the torque arm installed, axle wrap is eliminated, pinion rise is controlled, and the spring remains unaffected under loaded conditions. Additionally, by being centrally located, the torque arm allows the rearend to fully articulate over road transitions and bumps with zero bind. As a result, ride quality remains unaffected. These features allow the torque arm to be equally at home on the street, drag strip, or road course.
BMR Suspension’s torque arms eliminated the axle wrap and wheelhop caused by the rear leaf springs. The system gives you total control over axle movement, effectively eliminating axle wrap. Manufactured from heavy-duty DOM steel tubing and heavy-duty 3/16- and 3/8-inch, laser cut, CNC-formed steel plate, BMR’s Torque Arms are extremely strong, allowing them to handle the extreme loads of any form of performance driving. The versatile torque arm gives you an incredible amount of adjustability that was never available from the factory, all in a package designed and engineered to be 100% bolt-on with zero fabrication, cutting, or welding. The heavy-duty design eliminates torque arm deflection, allowing power to transfer more efficiently to the tires. BMR Suspension designed its Torque Arms for street performance, Pro Touring, and handling applications.
