Engineers? - Passenger side tcase brace function

Guessing yes, but are the bolts long enough?

Accidentally ended up with the wrong bolts on the 14sf diff cover (think maybe I swapped them with ones from a 10b) and they just kept coming loose. How critical would you figure that to be for that application?? But longer bolts solved the issue completely.

I always go with the longest bolts I can fit without bottoming out for that reason

Thread locked studs and thread locked nuts for the win.

Not sure, are you talking about the perspective taper as optical illusion? In any case, it's 3" from turbo all the way to the tip of the tailpipe.

Yes, just an odd angle.

I just wish I was good enough to draw down a pipe like that!
