Last Exhaust Thread... I Swear :D

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 05:49 AM

okay so i got my stinger's on... thanks to my buddy DAMN that driver side last bolt takes forever to remove... anyways my passanger side is sagging a bit.. i dont know how to raise it up... if i try to move it more into my mid pipe it doesnt line up with my driver side... anyone had this problem and know how to fix this?

Thank's

Pics would help, but right off the bat, bending the support rods might make it work.
I had to bend them a little to get my Magnaflows to line up nice.

Loosen up the exhuast clamps and us a large pry bar to bend everything into place and then tighten up all clamps. Just takes a little trial and error before they end up straight. Little tip, when you tighten the clamps your exhuast should be "relaxed". Don't be holding stuff in position while tightening clamps.

kraigster · August 15th, 2009, 10:45 AM

Make sure you have the support rods through the center of the rubber hangers and not off to the bottom. You can bend the support rods a little to achieve propper position.

When I did my full exhaust I put it on a lit, loossened everything from the midpipe back, used some exhaust stand that tucked everything closer to the body then did all my adjustments, and use air tools if available to get them nice and tight or else they'll come loose

I agree with Boss, it takes a little finesse.. LOL I also found that rotating the pipe with the clamps slightly loosened will help you center the tips in the bumper cutout.

man it is such a hassle driving through speed bumps hearing clankity-clank again... you think the stainless steel hangers from AM would help both situation?

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 09:13 PM

to go o/r bassani or catted bassani...?

stanglifemike · August 15th, 2009, 09:24 PM

If you are hearing some clanking then your clamps are not tight enough or the over axle pipes are bumping against something. Definatly use an impact ratchet/wrench when tightening everything up

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 09:25 PM

yeah i just used hand tools. lol i should take it to a shop then they can tighten everything and align my tips right? shit hope they dont charge to much...

usafimj · August 15th, 2009, 09:36 PM

Man if you thought axle backs was tough to install good luck on your futute mods. Axle backs are cake compared to everything else

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 10:06 PM

its not tough... it was easy except for the one bolt right on top of the mufflers... it wasnt hard just took some time... i just dont know how to align them..

usafimj · August 15th, 2009, 10:08 PM

It show's you how to align them in the link I gave you in the other thread

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 10:11 PM

yeah i did that but its still sagging...

stanglifemike · August 15th, 2009, 10:24 PM

best way is just trial and error. loosen everything up including where your over-axle pipes connect to your midpipe, then set everything how you want it. some axlebacks are near impossible to line up...Stingers arent one of them

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 10:31 PM

alright i will dirty one more shirt! one more time!

Youngin · August 15th, 2009, 10:32 PM

Thank's again everyone.

algx · August 15th, 2009, 10:37 PM

Post count, ladies. Post count

bigpappy33 · August 15th, 2009, 11:00 PM

I had that problem at first, i ended up taking off the whole muffler just to be able to really bend the support rod. put it back on and i had bent it too much, but it was easier to pull down then to bend it up while on the hanger. good luck!

Flynnster · August 16th, 2009, 12:44 AM

Just keep at it man, told you it'l be a bit of a pain till it's right.
