This H crossover is well and truly high and ground clearance is fine .

In regard to the planned X crossover pipe , this will replace the center resonator/muffler . As on my 500SL the two pipes come together at this point , so its just a matter of removing the resonator and putting in the X crossover right at that site , and again the X crossover will have the same good ground clearance as the resonator .
