    You'll see the belly guard on Jon's jeep when you're underneath it. It covers the cats completely and its a cheaper alternative to trying to relocate the cats. There also in that magic spot that all of us seem to hit all the time.

    There's also not a lot of room under the XK to move stuff around.

    Is there a reason the cats are located where they are? Or can they be moved further down the line? If you get a aftermarket muffler the room cleared up in that space is huge. Just wondering if there is a reason cats are always so close to the engine.

    The cats won't work if they're too far away from the engine; they need to reach a certain temperature to serve their purpose. Downstream the exhaust will be too cold and they won't do anything.

    Get control of your kids man J\K You can't remove the SD card from your camera? I can't remember the last time I used a cord to plug my camera into the computer.

    As Jon said we spent some time today playing with the Commander and all of your concerns are clear as day now.

    I am going to request some changes in the products we offer and see if there is something we can do to help cover the cats and add some beef to the rear crossmember. Jon's was abused real good!

    Also, we set Jon up as a dealer so please contact him for pricing, I am sure we will get his website updated soon enough.

    Thanks to all of you!

    Armando

    BTW: I will be needing a GC to do some test fitting on rea soon. Can't do a freebie on those, but will make it a sweet deal for your time if you want to buy some skids.

    I forgot I can take the card out and that I have a card reader... Must be an age thing!
