A Silicone coupler is what, 1/8" thickor so, which means that you're essentially adding 1/4" to the outer diameter of the pipe. -------------------- |

Yea right.... i bought t-bolts from 3 other places in 2.5 and they opened to fit 2.75 if not 3"... these guys, on the other hand, have really short thread and almost no bend at the bolt which is sh!tty, not only that but their customer service sucks and makes you feel like you being scammed (look at the phone conversation above), not only that they also send me 4.5" the first time ??? and charged me for shipping each time ?!? Worst company i have done bussines with
