i have v3 jpipe running to catback exhaust....where the cross pipe and left muffler meet its sitting high and bounces of the cross frame. is there any way to fix it?

 

Have a muffler shop bend then exhaust hooks to the rubber hangers.

 

*Bend where the muffler hooks into the rubber hangers* Sorry I made a typo

 

i kinda dont think that would do anything, i didnt know if they make like a spacer or something i could put between the midpipe and jpipe pushing the exhaust back a little so it would then clear the cross frame

 

i guess something like this but i can only find a 3" i dont know if that would be too big or not? and its coming from the UK

 

Ive been dealing with exhaust work for over 8 years, let alone the automotive field.. If you heat up the metal hooks on the exhaust and bend them the exhaust will hang a different way.. Like I said, take it to a legit exhaust shop and have them correct the problem.

 

okay i tried it once and they told me they would have to do pipe bending which i dont really want but im gona just try another shop then. ill post back with what this one says

 

took it to a shop yesterday and after bending the hangers its still hitting the cross frame....any ideas now?

 

^^ buy a new exhaust...my ALTP fits perfectly with no issues.

 

Hey akertulis, I had the same issue, but if you loosen up all the bolts from the cat back you literally have to hang on each section of pipe as you tighten the bolts. Start from the resonated section and work back to the cans. I have about 3/4" of clearance.

 

alrite ill have to try that then....guessing you did yours on a lift?

 

Yes, and it took a little work but it should give you the same clearance as I was able to get.

 

yea ill have to try that hopefully i get time soon.....does it have enough clearence now? no more bouncing off cross frame
