custom fabbed catback

SON1C · May 15th, 2011, 11:22 AM

after getting my custom catback done, 2.5" piping, it squeaks terribly when i go over any bumps, even sometimes when i sit in the car, and its also vibrating against something somethings, maybe my lca's? but it makes a horrible chatter sound sometime

i did my job under the table, 300 cash, you think the shop will fix this or am i going to get screwed again.

well how did they do ?

Mine was welded all the way. Only flange was from shorty to mid (stock)

Oone of my hangers r ...."stiff" it makes anoise because the exhuast is only a day old and the exhuast I had done was all custom fabd and welded 100% and this morning its not seeking cuz I guess the hanger finaly ..broke in

i checked under it, couldn't really figure it out, it has to be the hangers but the squeaking is incredibly loud, louder than the car

Get underneath the ass end of the car near the gas tank. You will see the hangers there. When the tailpipes go over the axle there is less than a 1/2" clearance up in there, very tight. That is where most noises come from. I've wrestled with them for hours before. I would definitely politely ask the shop who put it in to check things out.

SON1C · May 16th, 2011, 02:25 PM

yeah i checked it out, thats what it looked like that+the hangers
