Default How do you mount hangers on TSP duals..?

do you drill through the floor board and take the carpet out of the back seat and bolt it.. ? Is it a pita? Does it leak?

Also... Are the mufflers connected with clamps or are they attached to any part of the pipe..?? How long are they??


I think im going to swap them out for 2 hooker aerochamber single in single out 3" so i need to know length.

I used a 3/8" bolt, a split lock, a fender washer and a nut to mount mine.


The only PITA is cutting the stupid thick carpet.

Mark where you want it, drill a tiny hole through from under the car, then poke a nail through and have someone hold it so you can go up and see where exactly the carpet needs to be cut.

I didn't have to cut my carpet. I just reached under it. When you take the bottom part of the seat out, there is a hole where the seat bracket mounts. Drill carefully and don't go through the carpet. Get an extra set of hands to help hold the bolt once you put it through the floor.

I just welded mine to the seat pans while a buddy held the carpet from laying on the inside of the pan. Do yourself a favor and get a TTA so that you can tuck the exhaust up close to the undercarriage. Otherwise it will drag over speed bumps and look pretty shitty IMO.
