Default Y-Pipe Bump Stop Hanger?

Does anyone have these or are they needed to prevent the y-pipe from banging the floor board.Can I do without them?

The bump stop will help but adjusting the y pipe will be better.

you can get a cheap U clamp from auto zone or somewhere like that and run a peice of hose through it and use that. thats what im using and keeps it from banging but I'd still like to get the hanger since I still got some vibration

i hear bad things about solid motor mounts unless your strictly set up to race, Lots of vibrations. I had some exhaust wrap around where the pipe hits the floorboard and it worked the best. I got my mufflex bump-stop, just tryed to put it on and it sucks even worse than before. it seems to pull the y closer to the floorboard, any suggestions?
