Default Exhaust Back Box Drooping

Hi Folks,

I've noticed my back box appears to have dropped lower than normal on both sides, I haven't looked yet as its pouring rain, but anyone had this happen and is it probably just the rubbers perished?




thanks,
John

Pooping from the back box exhaust is a necessary and normal occurrence.

Your rubber hangers are stuffed if you don't fix it asap you might start cracking the exhaust pipe = $$$$

^^^^^^^
+1 for asap on this repair. I personally wouldn't even drive it like that. If the rubber hanger is missing or perished, pop on a hose clamp as a temporary fix.
