All 3 bars in flat stock with a triangle brace in the 4 point lower tie bar.

The stock exhaust catch this is seen below with the exhaust bar that replaces it.




I know the SE's have that part, because the first one I built was on request from an SE owner that had lost his stock exhaust catch thing.

If your exhaust bar hit something and broke the studs off (they are studs that hang down from the floor, not bolts into threaded holes) then you might need to get the rest of the old studs out and get new studs or bolts.


Also, FWIW, I found a solution that will allow me to offer a better designed 4pt LTB for SE owners. It looks like this:






The old compromise to get my style of LTB to work on the SE was problematic. It used longer bolts and spacers. Not really the best way to do it. This way eliminates the need for those longer bolts and spacers.


And one last thing.






These are going into testing tomorrow. I have a 3000 mile road trip coming up next week, so testing should go quickly...


Thought I would share with the rest of you, nice to see someone making more quality parts for the chassis.

That would be the old design, it is round not flat like these new ones. He said he can make some custom to fit if anyone is running a large diameter exhaust or w.e.

Thanks for posting rob.

And if you have a 3" downpipe with some measurements we'll make them fit.

Just measure how low your exhaust sits compared to the engine crossmember and we'll make it to the length.

And we're about 99% sure that the rear SRL bar will fit for the b14 guys as well.

Even though my b14 isn't lowered once james does the initial testing we'll test fit it on my daily and see if it fits.

I'm sure you could sell your current one and get one that does fit. Did you buy it before you were turbo and now it doesn't fit I assume?
