Just put the new exhaust on,and the way it’s bent it only gives me about 4 inches of ground clearance.I bet it doesn’t last long.Anybody else have bottoming out problems?

Mine has about 2 inches where the DP meets the exhaust. I don’t scrape too much, only on the streets of Troy and steep driveways.
