Unhappy DS safety loop clearance problems

>I have a clearance problem ...
I have all BMR componets i.e.- boxed subframe connectors , and TrakPak , but the drive shaft safety loop will not fit with the TrakPak .
Has anyone else have this problem and if so what did you do ?

will not fit?
how so? I assume that you mean it wont line up with the bolts for the cross brace.
the only reason I can see it not fitting is if it was drilled wrong, or your chasis is bent a bit.

I'm confused... BMR tells you on the website:

".....will not fit with BMR Trak Pak."

....and you want to make it fit? Why not ask BMR what DS loop they recommend with the Trak Pak?

I have an NHRA legal Jegs DS loop that is very close fitting. Check out a pic HERE Its only $35 too, so you can't beat that. Just an idea.

I was just trying to help you get an answer.... since I seem to have offended you in some way, next time I'll mind my own business when you ask a question.

Sorry to inconvenience you. Have a nice day.

>Hey man ,

I applaud your drive to answer all the posts especially ones that are as trivial as mine .
