What part of the Y pipe does that sit on? Where the crossmember was?

The back bracket just bolts in under the car right? Makes it more solid and doesn't allow the Y-pipe to bounce/flex.

It bolts with an existing bolt on the heat shield underneath the drivers seat. It just keeps the yipe from hitting in that area. Worked good for me, but others were not as lucky.

I put a hose clamp through a piece of heater
hose, at one of the sheet metal bosses that is
a close approach. Seems to work well enough,
meaning no KR on a full stomp.

Do you need just 1 or 2?? Ever since i dumped my exhaust, my y pipes banging alot more. Just wondering if you guys put 1 on each side of the y or is it just 1 side that is usually causing the banging??
