Trac bar

3rd gen camaro, does Trac bar look okay like that? Is the angle okay. Seems like bar is to long.

I would call that a torque arm. Is that with the axle hanging or at ride height?

sorry torque bar , I bought it with the crossmember , its at ride height , does it matter the bolts should be in line up and down ?

I would think that since the lower control arms are shorter the torque arm is going forward as the suspension travels downward so it will probably bind up. Probably needs to be a half inch shorter maybe. I think I would aim for the bolts being close to straight up and down.
