It great to be able to change mufflers/exhaust pipes/tips at home ... without having to buy gas (flux core)...
not to thread jack but I have to agree, one of the best investments I ever made for my garage.

This is sort of off topic w/ the original post in the thread. But is the Hooker catback sturdy enough having only 2 hangers? Or did you guys install any extra hangers on the tailpipes (pass. side especially)?
I'm lookin at putting this system on my car here in a few weeks, and have the extra hardware to put extra hangers on if need be.

yes they are plenty. the hanger on the I-pipe near the muffler will support the I-pipe and muffler the hanger on the drivers side tailpipe will support the drivers side tail and help keep the muffler level the passenger tailpipe doesn't need a hanger just position it where you want it and weld it to the muffler. Weld all the joints and you won't have to worry about it.
