probably not, just gonna have to look at options of either new poly mounts, grinding the mount itself or my last case senario hitting the header.

Yeah sounds like we're in the same boat man. We tried prying on it and tapping on the header but that stainless is pretty tough. I don't see how new poly mounts would really help though because idk how that would actually move the bracket all that much. It looks like the best option is grinding the bracket but I pry won't do that for a while since I've got to take the header off, looks like I'm going to have to live with it for a while...

I don't see how that will move the bracket for them that much though. I mean if it will I could see getting them, but if someone could explain why poly ones move the bracket that much way from the headers that would be cool.
