Exhaust shakes

[akcamaro02]

everytime i make a turn or go over a bump or whatever, the exhaust bounces back and forth. There are 2 hangers on the tailpipes, one on the over the axle pipe, this idiot at dobbs said its because there are rubber hangers on my car and there's nothing u can do to stop the exhaust movement. i find that hard to believe.
Anybody have this problem? I'm getting sick of every turn or bump hearing the exhaust clank back and forth

Re: Exhaust shakes

Tried getting new rubber mounts? Maybe yours are cracked or worn. Either way, they're cheap enough to give it a try.

X2 , also check heat sheilds esp. around the CAT or the CAT itself(known to rattle the heat sheild on it).

Re: Exhaust shakes

there is also a hanger around the cat. alot of after market exhaust don't use that....don't know why. but i had the same problem a few years back. i replace the hangers....i still get some play but it doesn't knock anymore

Re: Exhaust shakes

My exhaust is slightly modified. I have 2 hangers where the exhaust stretches from the Y-pipe to the axle, then I have a dual outlet magnaflow and had hangers put on both tailpipes. After everything was checked for rub spots, it was then fully welded. I still have an occassional hit, but thats over our signature MI pot marked roads.

Re: Exhaust shakes

that rubber hanger is the exact one i have. the exhaust wobbles left and right though...look at the crude representation i drew attached[IMG]
