Wolfe Chute mount install Seeing I'm getting the 149.xx range a lot and needed a little more weight in the rear figured I'd may as well add some safety as well and avoid any tech hassles if the car runs over 150.
Great kit from Wolfe, everything was included and the usual well made parts that fit. I put the handle in the console instead of the roof bar, I never cared for it up there but thats all personal preference. Few pics of how its mounted, nice thing is I can pull the chute and cable out of the car in about 5 minutes with only one little 'u' shaped notch in the TA filler piece left over. Did have to notch the license plate some, fold down plate holder would work nice on a street car.

I've see chute levers mounted all over the place Phil, as long as you can reach it easily it doesnt matter as long as you are comfortable with it and its not too easy to hit it by accident.

I have no reason to be driving around with a chute on the back of a street car, takes a few minutes to pull it off. If you need a chute for skr33t racing it would be easier to find a longer street

As long as you didnt cut into the numbers on the plate I dont think a cop would say anything.

That is where we mounted Shiz's lever, turned out good.
I still have a parking brake so I'm going to try to mount mine on the roll bar up high.

Kev, no I didnt have to take the bumper cover off at all, my rear bumper support was cut down and it came out without a problem and the wolf mounteasily fit up there with it on. Kind of a PITA to tighten the bolt that holds the chute mount in by the plate since its 'in' the bumper but thats mostly because of the bits of rubber and pebbles falling in my face out of the bumper cover.
