My fabricator is instilling my BBI y-pipe and it's looking good . But we have a problem ... The hydraulic pumps for the wing are hitting the y-pipe.. I really like the ways it looks ... And want to keep it the ways it is..
Now ive disabled my wing pumps, so my wing never moves and it stays in one position... But the god dam hydraulics are huge ... Is there a company that make smaller pump , or is there a solution to remove the oem pump and leave the wing bolted into place ?? And suggestions would be great . Name:  image-3745481483.jpg

My 2" eram kit might work. Shoot me an email for details.

I really don't care to have the hydraulic. I just want to figure out a way to eliminate the pumps to have more clearance and to keep my wing at a certain hight.

I removed all that stuff, replaced it against EB-Werks Fixed Wing Solution and saved another 3,9 lbs. Like the look, your y-pipe looks really good! The mounts are also fully adjustable

I think there is a fundamental problem of the wing-stalk depth, in the down position, the stalks need somewhere to go. BTW, I happen to be a big fan of Dave's kit, but I don't think it will solve your quest to eliminate the stalks intruding into the engine bay-- KH

Yes, everything can be fully disassembled. Hyd. Spoilers, actuator, lines and some small amount of pentosin. It depends on which Level you will set the wing, I placed it to OEM height and when I remember right it will give you a minimum of 2" more gap to your y-pipe

My spoiler stays up all the time, and I don't mind except the irritating warnings.
Can someone pls send me a link to "EB-Werks Fixed Wing Solution" and or "Dave's kit", both referenced above?
Also, can someone send instruction for how to by-pass the wiring to eliminate the warning which keeps popping up?
TIA,
Ola

here it is
did nothing to the sensor, just demounted it from the hydraulic stamp and strapped it to the cabin light/ fan cable. No signals yet since long time
