Default Intstalling TSP headers and ory, any tips?

Anyone have tips on this before I start to install? How much floor clearance? Do u take out that brace that goes under the drive shaft, next to the y.? What about that step down after the y? It's 2 1/2" should I cut it out and put in a 3"? Thanks

Ground clearance will be fine, should be able to get a pop can underneath them. You will have to take the drive shaft support out to install, but I would recommend putting it back on when it's done. Britt2020 can attest to that, he was driving down the road when the drive line came loose and that kept it under the car. I put mine back on, have you sweet talk it a little but it will go.

K thanks, been working on it, was very easy once u hold your mouth just right. Got the LT on and y pipe in about an hour. It's nice having a hoist. Only issue I'm having is the clearance on drivers side next to fuel lines, I've got maybe a 1/4" gap. Is that what it's sup to b????

Oh ya, there is no way that "drive shaft" bracket whatever it is, won't even come close to fitting back on.

I had to leave my bracket/support off as well. As for clearance, there were definitely a few spots that were pretty tight, so I'm pretty sure that's normal.
