Is it the ram hitting it or the 90 tubing fitting with the hydraulic hose hitting it |

i originaly dented the exhaust but my brackets broke and dan sent me new ones the new one wraps around the back acting as a heat sheild but when i reverse it the fitting pushes it out 1/4 inch or so |

You can take a small ball pean hammer and dent it in where the fitting hits, it don't take much, i've seen others done this way and it worked for them |

i originally dented the can but the new bracket he sent me wraps the can and its 1/8 thick kinda hard to bend if u go to marshmellow site u will see the new bracket maybe i call him tell him to send me the old style bracket instead |

Yeah you can try that, but once you figure something out share it on here cause i'm sure others may have the same problem and looking for a fix |

well i have tried every thing and the new bracket with the heat sheild will not work on prodrive it was made for gator tail i talked to dan and i decided to cut heat sheild off after all. it is now same as old bracket but thicker he has made thicker brackets for people having trouble with them cracking and sent them to me free of charge so for that he is a stand up guy but i really think it would be easy for him to make a few changes to give the reverse ram on the prodrive more clearance but for now put a dent in the pipe if u own one and if not call him and ask him to build one with more clearance or buy a q series |
