I ordered a BMR TH350 crossmember.

Can I route 3" exhaust under it, or does it hang down too low?

Couldn't find any threads on it.

No it'll most likely hang too low especially with 3" pipes. What you want is a double hump crossmember.

Couldn't find such a thing for a TH350.

I have a single 3" off the turbo. If I try to route t in the factory location I need to change the subframe connector. Ugg.

Have you thought about going with oval piping? It costs a pretty penny but it might be what you need, Rather then changing the subframe connector which I'm sure will be a big PITA! Or another way to go would be to just fab one up by cutting up a stock crossmember and weld it up to where you need it.

I think I'm going to try going over the crossmember. Appears to be enough room.

I used 3" oval(I think it saves about 1/2" compared to round pipe!) and made a custom crossmember.

I also have a th350

This is another example of design failure. Look at my picture.. Why the heck didn't they flip the sides the other way so they straddle the frame, and run the tube higher up?

I'm not going to cut it up and try to fix it, but it's kinda silly how far it hangs down vs stock. Unless the idea was if you hit something the crossmember will take the impact instead of the exhaust.... I dunno.

Time to cut it!
