If your drivers side cross over pipe is one piece part number (16SE4554). It will hit the top of the rear end. Corsa has a two piece cross over pipe that connects in the middle behind the heat shield for the spare tire part number’s (16SE4582) and (16SE4583). I had to verified I had the correct head pipe since it didn’t match the parts list. In doing so I found the up to date parts list online. When I questioned if everything was correct otherwise I was told yes. Even thou the drivers side was now a two piece design. After install I called to question the clearance and was told it would be good. The new two piece design covered the max tow package with the bigger rear end and not to worry. My truck doesn’t have the max tow package but the exhaust hit the rear end under movement. Causing damage to the harness over the rear end.  It took multiple calls to get the correct drivers side pipes sent out. When calling Corsa it was confusion on their end. Verifying what I needed wasn’t bad but getting the parts was another story. After a week I called again since I had not received the parts. Told it would be overnighted originally. They had zero idea who I was and no order of the correct pipes under my name. Was told the order was in but still nothing a week later. Wasn’t until the third time I called that I got the correct parts. Ended up fixing the harness myself since Corsa wouldn’t take responsibility. Basically if you don’t buy from them and you use a vendor they can’t guarantee you will get the most recent exhaust. Your instructions and the ones posted on the Corsa site are probably different. Corsa should put a warning about the updated kit parts but haven’t yet. The Corsa exhaust sounds good but this last experience will probably be my last kit from them. For the price I would expect a higher level of knowledge when calling in to verify parts in the kit and changes over the run of production on the truck.

I am going to hook up to my 24' car hauler tomorrow to verify clearance, I REALLY appreciate your input as unloaded of course it has miles of room.

Thanks again
