Default people with kooks catted y...

anyone with kooks catted y have a problem with it banging on the floorboard on the drivers side? had mine put on today and it is banging terribly on the drivers side floor board. has anyone used the mufflex hanger to cure this or maybe some other idea you have done. right now i have a piece of radiator hose between the y-pipe and floorboard to stop it temporally. any advise would be great.

that radiator hose may burn. sometimes kooks setups bang when they are new, but as they heat up and bang, they kind of "clearance" themselves far enough to not bang or rattle. everybody i know ith kooks had that problem, but it went away before they had a chance to put it on a rack and check it out, myself included. the good thing is you dont have to worry about ground clearance issues.
