is it the airtech rear hugger? do you have pics? I actually had to make a small 1 inch bracket on the rear leftmost mount to prevent tire rubbing.

edit: by bracket I basically mean i took a 1/2" wide, 1.5" long piece of aluminum, drilled two holes on it, and extended the existing mount. This flexed the hugger together just enough to clear the tire. The airtech kit was never manufactured perfectly, and if you talk to anyone who has installed one, they always have to do some improvising to get it to fit.

Can't get pics up right now but that sounds about right I've got some aluminum layin around that I can use ill whip up something tonight what did u do on the exhaust side where there is no bracket? Ha This ended up being a little more simple than I thought it would day. 100+ degrees and outside welding all day are starting to get to me

the exhaust side needed a hole drilled and tapped into the swingarm.

That's what I assumed I just wanted to make sure before I drilled into my swing arm thanks for the help

No worries. Good luck man.
