Default Big A$$ Crack

Im not sure which category to post this in but anyway, I replaced my factory trans mount tonight with the energy suspension poly mount and found something big time wrong under my car. Im not sure what the part is but its connected to the end of the transmission and also connects to the passenger side Y pipe. The pic will explain it better...



It looks like the part might just unbolt but im not sure. Any info on this would be awesome!

Looks like it is just the Y-pipe exhaust hanger... the Y-pipe hangs from it using the transmission as the brace. That is pretty much a given..not sure what your wanting to know. You can probably find one in a junkyard for cheap. Would be good to replace it to keep the Y-pipe from rattling/hitting the floor or sagging.

Yup...that's the y-pipe exhuast hanger. You can get another at the junkyard or from GM for about $35.
