About this part
The Whiteline KDT977 engine torque arm is designed to greatly increase control and confidence, the perfect, complete upgrade. Whiteline's torque arm mount bushing is built to handle the demands of high torque and power output engines. Low compliance bushing technology eliminates the slop, twisting and shudder of OEM rubber for a faster, more positive, responsive feel.
The torque arm assists in controlling the engine and drivetrain's forward and aft twisting motion. The torque arm is inherently soft due to the high compliance rubber bushing design and was built for comfort and not responsiveness or feel. Whiteline's torque arm mount bushing is built to handle the demands of high torque and power output engines by limiting the amount of movement the engine and drivetrain will place upon the pitch stop. Utilizing low compliance bushing technology eliminates the slop, twisting, and shudder found in the OEM rubber bushings allowing for a faster, positive, responsive feel of power delivery on and off the throttle.
Note - Performance alloy - heavy duty - induces NVH
