TTI Exhaust on Early A's

On the ebrake I ended up abandoning the rear spot welded guide and bent the forward guide (drivers side) down. It clears the drive shaft with about 1/2 inch at normal ride height, has not hit the shaft yet. Even if it, did I'm not sure much damage would occur. If it did touch, it would be momentary. I was not sure how else to make it work. Maybe someone else can chime in. The only other way I could figure this, would be to make a longer cable and reroute it somehow, with a J hook forward on the passenger side, thereby avoiding the drive shaft altogether.
