Default QTP, Electric Cutout and Subframes Install Problem

I have Kenny Brown Double Diamond subframe connectors welded in place. Just installed QTP headers and cannot fit the off road pipe and cutouts because of the subframe connectors.

What are my choices?

The only answer I can see is to remove the subframe connectors, which will be quite time consuming and replace with subframe connectors that will fit. If I go this route, which subframe connectors will give the most clearance for the exhaust?

Thanks,
Tony Cook

the tubular or boxed subframe connectors like the bmr or equivalent might be your only solution.they just run along your frame rail.

That's what I'll probably end up doing. I don't look forward to cutting the old sfc off.
