Use a hose clamp from home depot and use it around the hangers. Added benefit from using them is that you can pull your exhaust up higher if you slam your car and itll keep your exhaust from bouncing when you hit a dip at speed.

 

The muffler shop that installed mine used a long bar to lower the one side to make it even. Came out perfect.

 

Thanks for the tip! Looks a lot better now. I should have got a smaller hose clamp but oh well. I'm just glad it's even.

 

It cleaned up nicely, I'll definitely go this route if I have too once I install my exhaust.

 

thanks for the idea of the clamp. my passenger side needs to be brought up a little. great idea

 

do you remember what size clamp you used? 2'' maybe 3'' clamp? thanks

 

Cheap and effective right there! Worm clamps usually are not great for holding alot of load; but for a couple of bucks, why not!

 

Sorry tmf2004. I was lucky had one lying around and I didn't measure it. As you can see on my photo I had a lot of excess hose clamp after tightening so mine was pretty big. You can definitely go smaller. The hose clamp that I used was from my old intake pipe from my civic.

Depending on where you plan to put it on, just make sure the size you get is slightly bigger than the rubber hanger so you don't have excess hanging like I do. If you do, I'm pretty sure you can cut the excess off. Hope that helps.

 

thanks, picked up some 2.5'' clips this morning at Home Depot.. Trying this out tomoroow..

 

hahah you are creative with this simple and effective solution. Props to you sir!

 

Drove the car about 20 miles so far no issues with it coming loose. No rattling or anything. Will update again if I have any issues.

 

installed a clamp on the passenger side and worked perfectly... the driver side is not moving much so i might have to lower passenger side a bit or fit another avenue for the drivers side...

 

ended up using 2 clamps on the drivers side and now both sides are perfect.. didn't want to lower the passenger side as i like the look and less gap between the exhaust and bumper...

thanks again.. cheap easy fix and looks great

 

Glad it worked out. Any before and after pics?
