A catalytic converter guard for protecting a catalytic converter on a motor vehicle. The catalytic converter guard can include a set of mounting flanges, an input guard plate, an output guard plate, and a bottom plate coupled to the set of mounting flanges and the input and output guard plates. The set of mounting flanges can be configured to be coupled to a set of frame rails of a motor vehicle. The input guard plate can be configured to be positioned adjacent an input of at least one catalytic converter and can include at least one cutout shaped to permit at least one input exhaust pipe to pass therethrough. The output guard plate can be configured to be positioned adjacent an output of the at least one catalytic converter and can include at least one cutout shaped to permit at least one output exhaust pipe to pass therethrough.

Catalytic converter guard

An automotive vehicle mount includes a frame that has a cross beam, a longitudinally extending first side frame rail, and a longitudinally extending second side frame rail. Each of the frame rails includes mounting holes for a suspension system. The automotive vehicle mount further includes a first side mount bracket mounted to the first frame rail and a second side mount bracket mounted to the second frame rail. The automotive vehicle mount further includes a first air bag pivotally mounted to the first side mount bracket to support the cross beam, and a second air bag pivotally mounted to the second side mount bracket to support the cross beam.

Suspension mount for an automotive vehicle

An air suspension control apparatus for a vehicle is disclosed. The apparatus includes a charge tank maintained at a first air pressure such that selective filling of the charge tank with compressed air is permitted. The arrangement is such that, in a first disposition of the tank air valve, the charge tank is maintained at a second air pressure which is less than the first air pressure. When the tank air valve is in a second disposition thereof, the charge tank is maintained at the first air pressure. In a third mode of operation of the air suspension control apparatus, the tank air valve is in the first disposition thereof and a ride height air valve is in the first setting thereof. The arrangement is such that the first pressure within the charge tank rapidly inflates the air spring from the third pressure to the second pressure so that driving of the vehicle is permitted.
