Aluminum differetial covers ?

ECE makes a bent super track bar. I had the same problem as I was putting mine together. ECE took the straight bar back and sent a bent one.

I went to ECE's website and don't see anything there. Please take some pics and what was the price for the bent one?

Hey guys...sorry about taking so long to get a picture up. Here is the picture of the bar.



Call ECE and ask for Stan. He is the guy that did the fitting for the bar when I got it a few years ago. If I remember correctly the bar was about $25 more than a straight bar. I don't remember what I paid.

If you need pictures from a different angle let me know.

Thanks man, I will give them a call and see if swapping is still available.

can't ya just move the brackets back some..
I'd think a small piece of 1/4 angle plate or ? on the rearend side and move the frame bracket back would do it?

For the ECE bracket, I just got a longer bolt and moved the bar to the rear side of the bracket. I also installed a metal sleeve where the hym joint was originally located, to prevent the bracket from compressing/collapsing. I can post some pictures later. This is not going to be my final solution, but it will allow me to get my truck back on the road until I have time to design a better bracket.

If the bent bar they supply me with still dose not clear they said they would fab me one up that will. Thanks again Alex Haley for letting us know. John
