Almost had it...

Got this fine specimen from UPS...



aaand it doesnt fit.

But its really my own fault. I have UMI 3 point SFCs on the car, so they bolt in the middle the same spot as the TQ arm. In order to have clearance for the true duals, i have to "sandwich" the TQ arm mount between the chassis and the SFCs. Even with the TQ arm mount flat against the body it is a tight clear for the exhaust.

However, the driver side of the TD X member has a very short flange to bolt. While the driver side has a large one. As you'll see below.



the SCFs have larger plate, like the one of the pass side of the TQ arm mount, on both sides. So i actually cant slide the TQ arm under the SFC due to the TQ arm plate being to "shallow"

And i know you guys are prob just thinking, just bolt it on top of the SFCs instead of sandwiching it between... cant, then it doesnt clear the exhaust

Its hard to explain so ill grab some pics later. Maybe you guys can help brainstorm a solution.
