hey Marty

The rear UCA ?...no its the same length....maybe a turn or two different. I tried to run it in the middle of its threads to give me as much adjustment longer/shorter as possible. Other than that, its the same length as it comes form Ride Tech

yes I did have Tim shorten those front UCA a tad and the camber improved a lot. I'm still kinda worried about alignment adjustment with the way the front is set up now....we shall see...
On the Airbar set up on my Camaro we bolted and did a couple stitch welds.

Not sure that is going to acomplish what you want. I may be wrong here, but you have the exhaust mount on the wrong side of the expansion joint.
if you want the tip to always stay in the same location, you want to hard mount the tip centered in the valance and have the expansion joint before it, so that the tip will always stay in place as the exhaust moves around.

Yeah Bob I know the expansion part of the joint really isn't going to come into play with the current mount......it just gives a little more ability to adjust the tip and then clamp it down.... Not that worried about expansion that far back anyway... I have a bigger one mounted further up stream....
