Default Pacesetter Lt Y Pipe Fix

If you have the y pipe slapping the body,and making all that noise,I have the fix.If the y pipe is off this would be alot easier,but I did this mod with mine on,just take a 3/8 up, piece of 4 inch wide metal,set it on a floor jack ,place the jack were the notch in the driver side y pipe is,mark the spot on the bottom support (where it hits)jack the car up in this spot a couple of times ,untill it has flattened the section,and all the problems are solved,and you can even tell it,the floor stays the same,all you are doing is flattening this section for clearance.I think all pace setter y pipes need this mod.

I just stuffed a real leather glove inbetween my y pipe and the cross member that the pipe goes above, then tightened her down. No noise, works fine for me haha.

Hammer it or crush the **** out of it, either/or

You sure a leather glove isnt going to burn after awhile?
