Twisted (Joe) this was the damn reason my tip was hanging so low!

I saw this this morning and when I went to see why my drivers side exhaust tip was hanging so low!!:mad:

I just got this catback system in February of last year and the welds for the hangers already fell out, the car is only a summer and weekends only car.

I hope MagnaFlow can do something about that, I paid a pretty penny for this system.

Same thing happened to my buddy's Magnaflow system, albeit on a Mustang.

Tisk tisk tisk, cheap welds. I would just take it to my shop and get it fixd for good for $10-$20. I know a great place for welding.

Magnaflow has a lifetime warrenty, let the place you got it from know what happened, they should be able to get you a return authorization for it and the send you a new exhaust. If you have it welded to fix it you might void the warrenty.

Damn man, mine still holding strong... Makes me wonder if its the tension on the bracket from LT's and Ory and all the shit you have to put it through to get em on... Or in Zeke's case driver abuse.

First time I have seen it, but now I am gonna be paying more attention to mine for sure...

My driverside tip on my GMMG does that and idk why none of the hangers are broken and i even tried putting a tighter rubber hanger on it and that didnt work either

The welds dont actually break from what I've seen, it just rips a big ass hole in the pipe - not that its better...
