Default BBK L/T headers

I have BBK long tube headers on my 03 GT and they just look like they are really low, close to scrubbing the ground. Yes i do have H&R lowering springs but i just feel like they are hanging to low. Its the only thing that scrubs when i go over speed bumps. Does anyone else ahve this problem??

A lot of pple with long tubes and lowering springs have this issue .

I don't ever go any where that has speed bumps , or havnt yet since my long tubes but I expect that if I did they would scrape some.
My car is lowered 2 1/4" with some obx longtubes , im pretty sure the obx are just bbk knock offs

Same issue with MAC long tubes on eibach pro kit springs, if you get enough of an angle you can avoid hitting though.

OP,

Unfortunately, this is a common concern with LT's on SN95 Mustangs. I had the same problem with my H/C/I '95 GT, so I had to be aware of the routes I was driving. However, to me the Pro's out weighted the Con's... Everyone is different though!
