Track-link (undermount) clearance problem ???

Does anybody have the Track-links from Metco that installs underneath the leaf spring? If so did you have any problems installing them due to clearance with your exhaust tips?

Hey Lena,

From my reading of posts, most people don't have problems with stock tips. However Bassani or JDM tips do have clearance problems. Also, I think RobG had posted that Metco was coming out with a new, more versatile mounting system.

BTW, how do your Nittos compare to the F1's?

Hi Ed, went looking for you earlier today to see if I could look at your exhaust. I talked to Aaron at Metco yesterday and he wanted me to look and see if they were right below the front leaf spring mount and they are, mine are stock so I don't know about a new mount system.

I like those nitto's I did a 1.89 60ft on them this past weekend. I like 'em for daily driving too, a lot less road noise. Though I ordered some Hoosiers and wheels this week

yup.

See my install ordeal using the search.

Basically I cut up the mounting bracket to fit.
