Borla 14813 Cat-Back Banging floor board, Tips?
My Borla Cat-Back 14813 exhaust is banging my floor board, anyone have any tips to fix this? Seems like the banging is right where it goes over the axel over bumps. I have welded subframe connectors, which may be exacerbating this problem. Anyone also have this issue with this kit?
It's this model:

Are your slip-fit pipes welded, or clamped in place?
If there just clamped the pipes could shifted over time causing the over axle pipe to hit.
It also could be that the passenger side rear exhaust hanger bushing (passenger side rear) is worn allowing the hanger/exhaust pipe to move around excessively.
It could also be a combination of the two.

All of it is clamped with the ones provided...
What I think is that I need a new exhaust hanger, since the one is too close to the body vs. the other side -- they are different. Borla does not include the proper hangers, but they did cover the cost of one replacement one since it should have been included. Looks like they need to replace the other too...
Image 1 is the current and original passenger side style hanger -- seems like it may be too tight to the body or does not offer enough play compared to the driver side? Bushing is fine.
Image 2 is the current driver (replaced) side style hanger Bushing is new.
Which hangers do others have with their Borla cat-back?
