Anyone that has the Bassani catback, check out how close the the exhaust pipe (after the mufflers) is to the front leaf spring perch.

I didn't do that before installing the Rancho Traction bars, which are very similar if not the same thing that JLP is selling, and now I'm having to consider some form of re-piping because every time the rear end hits a dip or speed bump the friggin traction bar bumps the exhaust pipe making a funky/embarrassing clunk.

Some fellow L owners told me to adjust the exhaust pipe height so that it wouldn't happen, but there is no room to go up because of the spring perch.

This is a pic of the JDM exhaust system. The way the pipe is routed looks like you could adjust it up The Bassani is different, I will get pics of mine to show you what I'm talking about if you want. The Bassani pipe is right under that perch.

Greesed: Like i stated before These are our own design..Not Rancho bars...They are designed for Lightnings,HD with aftermarket exhaust,lowerd,ect. No issues here. I run the bassani exhaust plus have the truck lowerd no problems here.I'm sure our setup won't hit your exhaust either.....JL
