WELLLLLL...NOT in my books..lots of people are not running the "TUNNEL BRACE"...i have a LAKEWOOD TUNNEL BRACE/DRIVESHAFT LOOP.....I would be fine with leaving it for awhile, but not for long....myself. I have every suspension piece there is...mine rides...not harsh..but ..very firm.

thats what I thought but when was trying to get my td installed today it was in the way. I didn't end up getting it installed. was just looking in the exhaust thread and a lot of people don't have it on. maybe I'll fab one around the exhaust.
His is obviously a regular/street car/ maybe DD/....you have a fast/race car.............RIGHT..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I removed it so I could mount my torque arm there. A lot of dragstrips will accept it as a driveshaft loop also so I wouldn't remove it unless you are relocating the forque arm or have a driveshaft loop. If nothing else it will keep the driveshaft from catapulting you if it fails. JMO.

When I did my header and y pipe install that brace didn't fit back over the new exhaust. I've been running without that brace for 6 months now.
Should I buy an after market one that will fit? Its my daily driver and I don't go to the track.

Its fine to remove it. Mine has been removed for 15K miles for my true duals and no problems what so ever. The reason people do it is so they can get more clearance out of there true duals.
