That's quite a design! How does it affect towing and load-carrying, plus or minus? And is it compatible with aftermarket differential covers?

Thanks!!! no effect on weight carrying but does help with rear sway a little. As far as diff covers the skid doesnt interfere with them at all.

Wow after seeing the before and after video I'm interested!
I saw someone asking about if possible doing it in the driveway and the response was have to remove the driveshaft.
I have a two post lift, would that still be necessary since the rear end would droop down a lot?

It makes it easier to drill the forward crossmember if the shaft is out of the way but it can be done without removing it. The entire install can be done on the lift which is a lot easier and final adjustments of the arm itself is done at ride height on the ground,

What is the process for adjusting and what are you adjusting for?

The arm has an adjustable joint at the axle end which gets threaded in and out based on where the lower fixed joint falls in the axle bracket. This allows for different ride height and or angle variations from truck to truck.

One of our shop trucks is running the KHC Torque Arm. Install really wasn't that bad and the overall improvement is down right impressive. The truck feels much more planted and there's a noticeable difference in body roll even just driving around town. The improvement is more pronounced than the difference you get by just adding rear leaf springs. Off road, again huge improvement. No matter how hard you push the truck, it just stays planted.


Do you know why there less body roll with the KHC Torque Arm?
