Ok my exhaust is shaking all over the place. Basically when I bought it, it had some aftermarket O/R h-pipe and a magnaflow catback. Didn't shake at all. Then I had to pass emissions, so I just gave the stock h-pipe to the guy doing my clutch since he had to take the exhaust off anyways, and he put it back on. He called me up and said there was a missing exhaust hanger, but he just used some heavy duty zip ties to hold up the exhaust. The exhaust doesn't hang too low or anything, but i'd rather not have them be held up by zip ties for too long. I got under the car and I wasn't sure what hangers he was talking about. There are two I see on the catback, and there isn't one at all on the h-pipe.

I wanted to put the aftermarket h-pipe back on, but how the hell is it possible to get those bolts out all the way up there? Also, how many hangers and where are they on a 96 GT? I'd like to go to a junkyard and find something, so if anyone has a diagram or can explain to me where these other hangers are i'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

- Brian

the h-pipe doesnt have a hanger. and you should have 4 hangers 2 where the tail pipes are and 2 where the mufflers are. also what bolts "up there" where they connect to the exhaust manifold?

Ok so are all the hangers welded in originally, or are any bolted on?

not sure bout the 98 and b4 stangs. The 99+ stangs have a hanger by the mufflers which is bolted to the floorpan i believe and hangers by the tips.

Click to expand...

I just read a writeup on an H-pipe install and they DEFINATELY had hangers from the transmission for the h-pipe....This was on a 96-98, so maybe 99+'s don't have those?

Also, when removing the bolts on the h-pipe, how the hell do you get to the ones connected to the headers? Mine seem almost impossible to get to.
