[QUOTE="XP900, post: 16626913, member: 199546"] I replaced that thin bracket with a solid bar that created even less clearance for the driver side pipe but I was still able to get enough clearance. You should be able to get clearance by slightly twisting the pipe or moving the pipes forward as much as possible. If not then your OTA pipes are pushed too far to the rear of the vehicle and you may have to cut some from the front of the pipe. You really need 1/4 to 1/2 inch clearance everywhere for heat and movement. When I thought it was set properly I jacked mine up by the axle and pushed and pulled on the rear body to verify I still had enough clearance everywhere. Warning: Keep exhaust about 1/2" from those plastic hoses attached to the body over the axle on top by the drivers side or you will cause major issues. [/QUOTE]
