Default What loop are you running?

Can't get any info on this. Need to get one before the next time out and want one that works with different torque arms and mods. Any suggestions?

I have the Lakewood one. It will work with the stock and aftermarket torque arms that mount to the stock location but Exhaust will depend on what you have. It will work with stock exhaust and aftermarket ones that route in the stock location. If you are talking tunnel mounted TA's the Lakewood one probably won't work.

My Lakewood DSL fit with the TSP true duals and stock torque arm. It didn't fit when I put in a UMI torque arm. Now I'm looking for one that will work with the UMI TA and my Bassani True Duals.

I figure the 10 bolt will eventually let go and think you have to change TA when doing the 9" so was looking to buy once on the DS loop.

Well there is NO DS loop that will fit all combos. The only thing you can do is get one that fits your current setup and when you change the TA get a new Loop or make a custom one.

I'm running the BMR one, worked when I was stock, custom y after going longtubes then with custom true duals 2.5 inch. Worked with stocker TA and after switching to a BMR one, then later a TA relocation kit, it's still fitting fine.

The secret is to do custom exhaust work so that your choice of DS won't be an issue.
