Anyone use eBay speed engineering ls swap 1 7/8 long tubes?

As the title asks, I’m wondering if anyone has them on our third gens. Do they fit well? Any help would be great. They are at $289. Currently out of stock but should be available again by the end of the month. Thanks!

I used them on my build and they fit great, but mine is a completely custom build and I had to clearance one tube on the left side for the steering shaft for the rack and pinion steering. Traditional steering box would not have an issue. The most important fitment for me was at the collector where the frame rails pinch in and like I stated earlier, they fit great at that location.

Lots of guys use them with great success. They aren't as sexy or form fitting at the Hooker Blackhearts, but for a budget they are hard to beat.

Wow, good to know they’ll work and actually fit for how cheap they are. Thanks for the response to both of you.

Matt, that was very helpful and gave me the exact visual and description a person could ask for!! I like your car, it looks like you’ve put a lot of time into it, and money lol.
