    My buddy with the G37T turned me on too this type of barrier. I had planned to use good ol' header wrap, but I didn't think it would hold up too well to mud and pressure washers.

    This barrier was another wonderful Amazon purchase. It's amazing what you can find. :D

    I'm sure there will more impressive rigs than mine, but you're more than welcome to stop by and check it out. :D We'll be camped with the RV's.

    ah, nevermind. I just looked closer. the color change of the tubing made it looks like you had put that a stainless sheet wrap around the crossover before the fabric.

    Yeah, the new pipe is stainless. The fabric has metal feet and the clamps hold the fabric off of the pipe creating an air gap.

    Updated the exhaust re-route post with pictures of the new pipe before the wrap.

    That's the exact one that I bought. The feet sit on the pipe and the clamp threads through the feet.

    So it turns out that the ribbon cable between the ARC relay panel and the switch panel has a short in it. That's the reason for my entire control panel going out on me while making this run and others. Hell of a time for my lockers to not work properly.

    Need to find a piece of channel, or have a piece of plate bent to spec. I'll get some measurements tomorrow and shop around.
