ARH owners please step in!
Hello all. I have a question about how much ground clearance you all have with the ARH system. The three main places im concerned with is the drivers side header collector, then the drivers side of the y pipe after the header, and then the I pipe. Im lowered on strano's and the current set up has less than a regular can of campbells soup on the driver side part of the y pipe and just a smigin more on the header and i pipe. So im curious to see who is lowered with the ARH system and what sort of ground clearance you all are working with.
Thanks, Jon

Oh and by the way i have ripped the v-band clamp off the header once and damaged it twice by hitting things, so needless to say im rather fed up with my current setup and im lookin to get the ARH's because they look so nice and fit up so well from what research i have done.

I have the Strano springs and ARH's. The lowest point for me is the driver side cat on the y pipe.
I really haven't had much issue with ground clearance. As with any lowered vehicle you will need to watch where you are going and take inclines at an angle.

I had my ARH on my car when it was lowered; you had to be careful. Driver's side Y pipe is the lowest part. Collectors seemed to have good clearance. I't banged against floorboard.
I raised the car back to height, and seems to have fixed any problems associated w/ clearance.

I have a set of big 1 7/8 ARH, and love them. My car is lowerd in the front with stange drag coil overs, and no inolater in the rear. I made the Ypipe becuse I like doing things I can myself. But here is some pics, I have the long speed bumps in my complex and they clear fine. My BMR TA relo, is the lowest in the front. The driver side header is next but its never hit becuse its so close the the front wheels, it rolls over stuff. My 3inch Ypipe not dented, and tucked close with no heat sheilds and thats never hit. The Ipipe in 4.0 also. I get on the drive on lifts in new era fine. Un lowerd cars with SLPs hit, for refance.

I have a set of ARH's and as far as clearance on my Firehawk with bilsteins no problem up front just my turn downs on the dumps scrape at high speeds if road causes compression of suspension....other than that not one time "yet" have a scraped anywhere else, and they fit awesome, look and sound great....
