^^^ better clearance then me ehh
those clamps look badass, do those clamps open all the way? as in do i have to remove my pipe to install them, or can i just slip them over then pipe?

the ones i bought at napa come completely flat, you have to bend them around the pipe which made it easier for me because i had u-bolts like you at first but scraped and scraped, so i just swapped these on there with the whole exhaust on. the 4 in. clamp i ordered from summit, that came pre-formed but i just took the bolts out of it and carefully opened it to get it around the pipe, no problems! either way they come they open all the way. when you put them on just make sure you use a wrench to hold the nut while you tighten the bolt the a socket, and get it nice and tight and it wont leak.

yeah just give them a call and make sure you know what diameter you need. they go for 11 a piece i think. just make sure you have the bolts on the side of the exhaust pipe, not underneath (like how i have mine) that way you dont have any extra material below your pipes! honestly its not going to make you not scrape but with your clearance anything might help.
