That's odd. My GTM kit had spacers to raise the brace about 3/16" or so to avoid that problem.

So the spacers should come with the kit? Listed in the instructions?

I had a 1.0 SC kit and no problems, after the 1.5 change to 3" pipes caused the trouble

It's been so long since I looked at the TT instructions I couldn't tell you. Im sure mine came with my kit. They're nothing special. You could snag some washers from Home Depot and be back on the road in fifteen minutes.
