only thing is tho i was thinking the same as i scraped my exhaust manifold on the floor so i tacked on a piece of metal to where it scraped my manifold, and to be honest it made it worse because it made it sit even lower, wouldnt it just be easier to lift it slightly, orr lift it and put the guard on aswell?
