Default Pypes cross flow with PTFB

I have the pypes cross flow exhaust with the PTFB rear sway bar and drop links. the passenger side drop link is hitting the exhaust bend going in to the muffler. This is already a very tight bend. Anyone with this setup have a solution?

I thought there was a pretty easy solution. It seemed there was a different bracket that bolts to the body. The one the links fit into. It would make the links go lower and the sway bar swing down. A spacer may have been an option between the bracket mentioned aboved and the body also. Only in conjunction with longer bolts though of coarse.

I have all ptfb and custom works suspension and mine rubs also unless it is set to the stiffest setting. I have a factory (yes factory) style exhaust though. I was hoping my pipes set up fits better but it is not installed yet.

I sent mine back to Dave and had to use the stock bar/drop links. No way to make his work with the crossflow muffler. I have just about every product he sells on my car and the drop links and drop base air cleaner are two items that wouldn't work on my car.

I ended up going with 2 mufflers. I added a tanks ink tank and there was no way to get the 1/2" lines from the fuel pump threw with the transverse muffler this also fixed the drop link problem
