tunnel brace

I was able to reinstall the tunnel brace on my car after I installed hooker longtubes, but the Intermediate exhaust pipe sits right on it and makes alot of vibration. Is ther any other way to mount it(with spacers) or should I just ditch it completely? Could I use some king of material beetween it and the pipe to get rid of the Vibration? Thanks.

It's really not worth the effort. It doesn't do hardly anything as far as tightening up the suspension. My suggestion is to ditch it and if you're concerned about rigidity then get a set of subframe connectors. I haven't had my tunnel brace on since I went true duals last spring.
