Mine are mounted the same way, i just have my turndowns facing almost straight down, diddnt have to bend the hangers like that.

I would suggest getting them absolutly as high as you can. Make sure you have the rear suspension loaded, if you worry about the tq-arm hitting if your suspension extends down, you're going to have shitty clearance.







....and my washers are bigger

I used a jack and 2x4 piece to really get them up there, about in the same place, suspension loaded helps out.

That's pretty smart. Looks like you gain a little clearance bending the hanger like that. Also, turndowns pointed out help out a little on the drone.

You guys really need to have the rear tires on ramps, blocks, whatever so the suspension is loaded. If not you can tuck the duals up till they touch the torqu arm and then when you sit the car down the torque arm will go up and you will see you could and should have went much higher with the exhaust which will leave your ground clearance crappy.

Don't drill till you have it all mock fitted and aligned.
It will prob be different on every setup so get everything in place and you will know where to drill then.
But yeah, your gonna be somewhere around that area when it comes time.


P.S. Click here, or on the link in my sig, , I made a whole writeup on the TSP TD system, it might help you out.
