Install happens this Sat morning starting a 9am. A buddy and I are doing the install at the on base auto skills hobby shop.

For those that have fabbed and installed your own setups. Do you have any tips for me. Like the best placement for the exhaust hangers. I purchased 6 just to be on the safe side.

I will be dumping them at the axle. I can always have them run out the back if I'm not satisfied with the first setup. Any install tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm probably not much help. But I'd recommend installing the hangers anywhere they won't obstruct anything else and anywhere the exhaust is hanging the lowest or is hanging with the most weight(ie by the cats or mufflers). I've noticed a lot of true dual setups have the hangers mounted on either side of the low part where backseat passenger's feet go. Each pipe goes on either side of the DS and each hanger is on the upward hump(if your underneath the car) of by where the feet go. Out of the way and a perfect hanging place. Just do a search for true dual pictures and see where they place there's. Good luck

seems like most people just use 2 hangers (one for each side), in the place where the guy above me mentioned
