TSP True duals...Where did you bolt the exhaust hangers? Running into a couple hang ups (literally) on my true dual setup. First my header flanges needed to be cut. Now it looks like they need some kind of extension, but before I get to that, I want to mount the mufflers to see how much extension I need.
The hangers look like they can be bolted, but I don't see a place to bolt them to under the car. Where has everyone else mounted them? Are you bolting them on or welding?

Good idea. I see some bolt sticking out already that I thought might be a seat belt bolt. I thought I might be able to use it if it wasn't. It's the tread part of a bolt coming through a silver plate located near the driveshaft bilat. I'll try to take some pictures when I work on it again.

I did the exact same thing in the same place. I'll add that I used a 2x4 and a jack with the car on 4 ramps to lift the exhaust. Lifted it until it touched the floor pan and lowered it enough to clear. It will touch the floor pan when the engine torques under WOT but solid motor mounts should fix that...I think.

Ok thanks for the input guys. I'm going to let the professionals handle this one. My headers need some type on extension to work anyways so i'm going to take it to the muffler shop friday
