New exhaust...how to stop rattling? Hey everyone. I decided not to go with the Mufflex for two reasons:
a.) WEIGHT...pretty heavy exhaust
b.) couldn't really get 4" exhaust under an f-body on jack stands
So I did some ghetto exhaust work. I liked the sound of the open y-pipe idle, so I decided to run a muffler straight off of that. I bought a 12" section of 3" exhaust pipe, ran it into a Moroso Spiralflow, into a Flowmaster scavenger turndown, which dumps just before the axle. I love it so far. It sounds good, flows reasonably well, offers great clearance, light weight, only one problem...the damn muffler keeps hitting my floorpanel. How do I stop this? Do I need some type of exhaust hanger? Please help, as it's getting annoying and quick.
