B Pipe Problem

I replaced my exhaust about 3 weeks ago with the SP2. I took a trip from Ct to Nj for easter and my car took one heck of a beating on 95. I recently noticed how low the passenger side of my B Pipe was hanging, and then noticed how crooked and uneve the hanger was for the B pipe. Any info or advice on how to get the passenger side back up closer to where it should be?






I dont know about the other setups for the B Pipe, but I expected something better than just a bolt for a hanger, especially for 500 bucks. That's probably why the hanger is all twisted the way that it is.

ok that works

hmmm thats pretty low. I cant speak from experience but I seriously doubt it should be like that. There has to be a hanger missing or something. Stock doesnt hang near that low.

Yea I know. The only thing that I am missing as far as hangers, is up near the cat converter. There is that one hanger that bolts to the cat, and is attached to 2 rubber hangers, but I don't see how that can have anything to do with the B Pipe being low all the way at the other end of the car. The pipe is supposed to tuck up near the frame of the car, not hang low like that.

Looks like the rubber hanger has streched out. Try getting a new one. There is hardly any play on the new ones, very hard to pull apart. It propably happened from not having the 2 cat hangers more weight on the 1 b-pipe hanger.

Looks like the hanger was bent, bend it back and change the rubber hanger

I'll order a new hanger, and once I add the hanger at the cat converter, hopefully that will help. I'll also try to take the B Pipe off and bend the hanger straight. Thanks for the info.
