How to stop muffler wobble?

My universal Remus muffler wobbles and hits the stillen valance. The shop I went to says they can't do anything, and that it has to move, but I know it does not have to move as much as it does. Is there anything I can do myself? Do any of you guys know any shop in NYC area that puts aftermarket mufflers on with no wobble?
thnx in advance

Get new hangers and put zip ties around them to limit the movement.

My muffler shop...

replaced all the hangers with shorter/thicker ones...no wobble...
I have asked my friends and they confirm that it sits solid, even over bumps. I've seen the same short/thick ones at PEP BOYS.

Thanks

Thanks guys,
I feel like if I dont' do it myself it will never be the way I'd like it to be, so this is my new project.
take care
