First off yes I’ve engaged Steeda, they have been wonderful trying to help resolve the issue.
What’s the issue? When installing the bracing the passenger side is making contact with the header which is subsequently making the front passenger mounting hole off-center by about 1/4” or so. This results in the brace not being able to be fully installed.
Steeda suggested inspecting the motor mounts for excessive ware (I thought this was unlikely with 5k miles on the car. And upon inspection they were verified in good shape.)
A second solution offered was to use the hardware from their 2 point brace to use as a shim on the rear mounts of the brace to see if it provided the needed clearance. I am awaiting the hardware arrival and will report back once I get it and take another shot at installing.
In the meantime, has anyone else ran into these clearance issues? If so, was there another solution that worked for you? Their site states that it clears LTHs but for my LTH brand headers it does not seem to be the case. Regardless, I’ll report back once I try the spacers.
