Exhaust sitting too low

[John.]

It'll have a braided flexi part on the downpipe then........maybe this has stretched??

Ignore this, I thought it may of had a fexi part on the vertical part of the down-pipe....but Dave's pic#14 clearly shows not.

I had this problem with the stock downpipe, when I got everything fabricated properly and used chain reinforced mounts. No more height issues at all from the exhaust

The issue is mostly that it is a dual section exhaust, that is the part that will hit most of the time from the flanges just past the downpipe

Not having new exhaust done anytime soon unfortunately. But I will check it tomorrow and get some new mounts and hope it fixes the issue.

Doesn't take that much weight if your other hangers are working. It is designed to be a locator rather than a weight taker. "Keep your exhaust from sliding off the hanger" :

OK then, I can leave that as I replaced it recently. If I remember correctly it did take a lot of weight which means rest of them are bad. OK, I'll order 3 and hope that fixes my problem. Thanks for the help guys.

If you want to confirm it is hanger sag then jubilee clips or heavy cable ties will pull it up to check.

The cheap ebay ones stretch to about twice the length of the chain ones.

Received them today, and noticed that the hangers on the exhaust/car are too wide to fit new hangers? I guess I can just cut it to make it narrower?

Hang us a picture

Perhaps you could post a photo of your current set-up where you are trying to install these alternatives?
