Default Hanging True-Duals...

Whats the best way to hang a set of true duals in the rear? Do you have pics of your setup for reference?

make sure you pull up the carpet and use bolts. Every place I went to just wanted to use screws & said it would be fine. Well I finally got it done and on my way home, a screw fell out, so I replaced all the screws with some nice bolts, washers, lock washers, and nuts. It's been workin great too

Mine did the same thing. Pulled the buckets seats in the back and pulled the carpet up and used bolts. Has been fine ever since.

Mine hang just like DirtyJohn's

I just used the rear seatbelt bolts. I got longer bolts though because the stock ones weren't as long as I wanted them. Then i put a U clamp around the exit of the muffler and hung it like that.

My exhaust hangs the same way as DirtyJohn posted. I believe his pics show TSP's true duals which come with the hangers. I couldn't find them locally but several online places sell them, none are sponsors though.
