Hi folks, hope everyone is doing well. Finally had some time to start assembling another project and am dealing with a mismatch in parts.
Have Sierra Madre headers and what I thought was a 1974 exhaust. Basically the headers are too long, or the flanges on the exhaust are too tall (far extended) from the rest of the muffler. Any ideas? Thanks! |

Totally frustrating especially since info on a web page is so easy to correct. I just ordered some stock torsion bars from them. Hopefully, what I actually get are the stock size bars.
I paid a bit more ordering through them because they had them on the shelf. Even Sway-Away didn’t have them in stock. |

If you need them quickly you may want to give them a call to see if they actually have them because the customer service person just told me they list everything as available. That only means they could order it for potentially months away in delivery. When it shows available on the website, they use a several day formula to show that you could have it between two and five days from now even if it isn’t something they actually have in stock |
