Default TSP Dual install question.

On a stock height F-Body how far from the ground is the lowest part of the system? How did you deal with clearance of the torque arm? Is anyone using TSP duals on a lowered car?



Thanks,
Joe

People are, and their clearance IMO sucks. If you search, there are all kinds of threads, and I remember seeing lots of pics.

The clearance on stock height is not bad at all. Just take the speed bumps kind of slow, and you should be fine.

No complaints here. It's all about taking your time and getting those bullets tucked up into the tunnel. Clearance around my torque arm is enough to get my finger in between.

I have Eibach sportlines and barely ever rub. I have a BMR torque arm and there is about a finger of clearance between it and the x-pipe. There is about a half of a soda can of clearance at the bottom of the turndowns. I also recently redid them and turn the bullets out and it as less drone and more clearance.

Only complaint is the driver side bullet is tight to the torque arm.
