But it seems to sit a little to the right... Any way to fix this?

(btw, I like cheap alternatives too... lol)

 

Yes, I fixed it by tying the top part, right above the exhaust, with a metal hanger, the type you get from the cleaners, that holds it in place.

 

all you have to do is get yourself 4 large zip ties, connect 2 of them together and make 1 uber zip tie. then do the same with the other 2 zip ties. once you have 2 giant ones, get under the back end, and zip tie the can in place where you want it.
use one zip tie to pull it to the left, and the other to hold it to the center, and keep it from pulling to the left.

easy fix that will cost you about $0.00

 

^wouldn't they get too hot and melt?

 

^^ I actually did something similar as well... but I zipped the ties to the hanger rod itself, I kept adding them to the
side of the hanger that I wanted to push over the rubber mount from.. I think it took 3 of them side by side.. its been
almost 2 years.. still holding fine.

 

Never thought it would be so simple! I guess I'll have to try it tonight!

(anybody have pics of this done?)

 

Here:

Mine looked just like yours.. then I did this to the hangars (both)

the rubber used to be all the way at the left end of the muffler hangar.. these zip ties have kept it off of there

(havn't looked at this since I did it , just took this pic, so they are fine a couple years or so later

Now.. I'm centered ever since

 

P.S I should add, this is the rear hanger in the pic.. it is not really stressed, its the front one that is holding it straight,
but it is set up the same way.. this side was easier to take a pic of

 

when i did mine with zip ties, i used the mount for the rear heat shield and went around the hanger rod to pull the can in the direction i needed, not the tip of the hanger as is pictured above.

the zip ties do not really touch the hot part of the exaust (when you get under it, you'll see what i mean). either way will work fine to keep the tip centered. i'll post pics of how I did mine, and you weigh the pros and cons of each method - My fault for not specifying where exactly to connect the zip ties to.
pics to come shortly..

I should note - this is the rear hanger. shot from the left side - I removed my rear heat shield and ran Zip ties through the mount for the heat shield as you can see. You do not need to remove the heat shield to run zip ties here, but it would be easy to pull 1 10mm bolt at the back of the shield and drop the back heat shield when you run zip ties. you can re-install or remove the heat shield completely if you want. i already had mine removed for quite a while, as i noticed with my exaust, it wasnt as close to the underside of the vehicle as the stock exaust was, and i saw no reason to keep the heat shield. i have had no heat issues since removal, but all exausts are a little different, and i recomend you inspect yours before you decide to chuck the heat shield if you are thinking about removing it.
Once you are under the back end, you can find lots of suitable locations to run zip ties to that will not interfear with "hot" parts of your exaust.

 

^^ yeah.. either way Zip Ties to the rescue!! lol

my way, I didnt really think would work, but fortunatley I am still waiting for it to fail..

 

i want an exhaust so bad (mommy wont let me since shes paying for part of my box)

 

^tell her there was a factory recall that calls for a Strup replacement exhaust, or it will explode!

 

haha i wish
