[QUOTE="ace72ace, post: 13381113, member: 138112"] I had also run across some post regarding the CHE torque brackets, also negative. Think about this piece, and what it's bolted to. Other suspension mods I've seen require welding, new parts that provide reinforcement at critical stress points, high strength bolts, and better metal. While I have no first hand knowledge or proof that the CHE part will damage the MT-82, it doesn't seem like a good idea me as the trans was not engineered to handle additional torque on the housing. My Boss has the infamous 3rd gear lockout/missed shift at WOT, even after installing MGW shifter. I was looking at Cortex racing upgrade, hoping the torque arm would reduce the deflection causing the missed shift. I want to get this upgrade next year. The rear LCAs on these cars are junk, wheel hop can get really nasty on uneven surfaces.
