JLP or JDM traction bar question

Anyone have JLP or JDM traction bars on a lowered truck? I heard they were supposed to clear the exhaust and all but I would like some real world stories
Thanks Mike

JL's were designed to clear aftermarket exhaust.

2" drop in the rear w/ magnaflow muffler for now (Bassani by Summer) and have plenty of room.

Some have had issues with exhaust using the Rancho bars.

Can you help me out a little. How much clearance is there with the exhaust( I'm lower than 2 inches in the rear)? Also do you know the length of the bars?
Thanks for your help
Mike

I believe the bars are 58" but don't quote me on that. I've got JJ's stainless bars with LFP's bracket kit but most of the Rancho-based kits should be similar. No clearance problems with a Silver Bullet exhaust and a 3" Belltech drop (unless you count the brackets over speed bumps)...
