To: When do we get liberated?
Got nuttin' to do with engine torque (directly). It's that design's way of transferring the tires' traction forces to the frame. Essentially it transfers the push to the engine through the tranny, and to the car through the engine mounts.
Without it, those forces would very likely form a singularity that would devour the entire earth. Well, some of it, anyway. We'd lose Toledo, for sure.

We'd lose Toledo, for sure.Ohio has been trying to give Toledo back to Michigan for years, so at least Ohioans wouldn't mind.

I would think the two tubular steel traing arms and panhard bar that are there would would do the trick.
