motor mounts. i just stuck steel wool between the y and the floor. other ppl use pieces of heater hose or exhaust hanger to stop them from rattling, but the correct thing to do is motor mounts.

very very very very common.

by the hangers i meant people take an exhaust hanger and cut it in half, then shove it between the Y and floor haha. they also make a special Y pipe hanger that's supposed to reduce rattle but i'm not sure how well it works.
