Solution for Clamp Scraping?
My car was lowered on Stance coil overs with a ground clearance of a about 3.5-4 inches. Prior to yesterday, I had no issues clearing speed bumps aside from having to enter them at an angle; however, I started badly scraping last night as I exited my neighborhood. The odd thing was that just a couple of hours before it started, I left and entered with no problems at all! I then decided to raise it up to a solid clearance of 4 inches, but it still scraps slightly. It was then that I decided to check the undercarriage to see if anything had gotten loose and discovered that a clamp was at an awkward angle.

I believe that it's at an awkward angle since the clamp doesn't seem to be pointing downwards in other pictures: http://www.grimmspeed.com/content/im...iy/figure3.jpg (pulled from a DIY tutorial by GrimmSpeed. The clamp is to the right of the third red circle.) Before messing around with it, I wanted to see what you guys think. Any suggestions for fixing this is greatly appreciated! tl;dr: "low" rider for months->suddenly starts scraping->raised it up->scrapes slightly->turns out to be clamp->halp. EDIT: I've fixed it by simply pushing it. It likely rotated around due to driving through terrible roads, causing the clamp to shift out of place. |

Never mind, I fixed it with my trusty sword. |
In one picture you have an exhaust clamp that clearly hit a speed bump and rotated down reducing your ground clearance. In the second picture you show under tray fasteners and act like it's the same part.
