Default quick question for you tsp true dual guys

i just got my true duals from tsp yesterday and im getting ready to install them right now.

my question is how did you guys get the dumps to face outwards, i know there is bending required but how did you bend it because it seems like a pretty stiff hanger and i dont have a torch or anything.

thanks

Torch no workey
My neighbor used a big *** table mounted vice and a breaker bar.
Secured the bottom half connected to the pipe in the vice, and bent the top half with the hanger with a breaker bar big enough to fit over it.

Then its just eyeballing it to get it in the right position.

I marked my holes for where I wanted it to end up, then I had him bend it until it matched.

Make sense?

:bringing thread back from the dead:

My TSP TD's didn't come with any instructions and their website has nothing (and they are closed right now) so my question is how/where do you hang the mufflers ends? I see NOWHERE anywhere near the ends that I could attach them to.........anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

The way mine naturally sat when I attached them to the rear seat base, they were angled outward a bit. DirtyJohn's writeup is sick, don't forget to flip your fuel lines if you want some more clearance
