    It is hitting the rearend where the exhaust comes over rearend. The 3" pipe is too big and it hits the rear pretty good.

    Yeah, Curtis had to have 2.5" pipes over the axle with his 9" because his 3" pipes wouldn't fit.

    12 bolt > 9"
    That was one of the deciding factors as to why I got the strange 12 bolt. It's basically a direct replacement for stock. Granted, it's not as strong as your 9" but I also don't beat on the car very much.

    I'd rather have the 9" and deal with rerouting my exhaust.

    the 9" is definitely stronger but with not really tracking my car and it being an auto I couldn't justify the extra pain in the ass it was to install. Plus I have a 3 channel rear and I *think* I couldn't even get a 3 channel 9".

    I got it to fit around my axle now my stupid 1350 yoke is going to hit. Think I can take it in to an exhaust shop to get it bent around the yoke mounting point. OH by the way GO BRONCOS!!!!!
