I played around with flipping the trailing arm mounts. (Not in chronological order)
In the flipped position I get 10deg up on the pinion and not much room to run exhaust.
In the stock position I get 5 deg up and more room for exhaust.
I elected to leave them in the stock orientation.
I'll be going 4-5 max drop in the rear so this should work.
The crossmember exhaust cutouts are just rough cut. I finished them off later.
