Well good news, torque brace is installed... looks good, bad news is i have severe vibration, i set it on 12 mm, but im thinking of backing it to the max softness 15 or 14, where does everyone else that has one have theirs set at, and do you get like bad vibration? like it is just plain loud in the cabin, i can hear the motor..... is that normal or no? i have never had a torque brace before so i dont know..... someone help!!!

if you have a grinder and a torch you can easily solve this issue. I tell you what. When I get my control arm bushings I am getting rid of my brace. At that time I will post that the brace is available. I will then trace out the exact measurements of my brackets for my brace and people can start to change their brackets. My brace does not vibe at all. The reason they do vibrate is because the brace is making contact in two different areas with your existing mount. This is not good ! You never ever want metal on metal contact at a high rate of vibration..... see my thread called TQ brace issue solved. It explains in detail how to fix this issue and it will only take 20 mins......
