I ordered a crossmember from suicide doors. One side has a few more bends in it than the other side....anybody know what side goes where? Or if it matters? Just wondering if the flater side goes on the driver side or passenger side.

and drag the ground and fall in half. after i did that w/ mine, i made jason send me one w/ out the "hump" for the exhaust and told him to redo it cuz it was a shitty design.

The crossmember is made to clear the exhaust as mentioned. The design is fine unless you going to drag the shit outta it. If your gonna be a dragger build one that tucks and redo the exhaust.

no prob, also later 2.3s have a cat thats abuot 20 inches long and likes to split in the middle, so a small hi flow cat is always a good replace ment

My 97 had to have the humps in it, but mine was an alterimages one that wasn't 1/2 inch thick.
