Default LM2 Install Help!!!

I pulled out the Flowmaster cat back that the PO had installed and I started to piece in the LM2. I'm to the part where you connect the welded bracket to the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. I'm guessing that I don't have the stock mount anymore. Take a look. Where do I get a stock mount? I'm stuck and frustrated as hell. Thanks.



Ignore the leaking rear end, I am also installing a "Ultimate" girdle cover.

You need the hanger that bolts TO the catback, and that SLIDES into that hanger.

Should look similar to this

Ok, I don't have that. Does anyone have a picture of the actual stock one. Even better would be pictures with some basic measurements so I can have one made.

Gm dealer can get you one for less than 10 bucks if I remember.

I had this exact problem installing my lm1...

That was almost 10 years ago tho. Prices may have went up since then.

definitely missing the hanger, that sucks, wonder how things like that happens sometimes. Shouldnt be too hard for a muffler shop to get you one or you could go to GM for it.
