Trd exhaust hanger issues

I picked up a Trd exhaust for my DCSB and installed it this morning in like 20 min. Everything was super easy and worked out fine except for the rear most hanger. It is 90 degrees different from the stock location. Anyone ever have this issue? I’m tempted to try and bend the rod to match the frame. Anyone else run into this?

 

Mine lined up fine. Simple install for me.

 

Seems like the AC or DCLB version required the hanger to be bent to fit stock location on DCSB, but I don’t recall.

Anyway, my guess is you might not have the “correct” exhaust, but simple work with a torch to fix that, or an exhaust shop.

 

I bought a take off exhaust from a 2014 and had the same issue. Got the hanger on the exhaust hot and turned it 90 degrees. I was about to go to the salvage yard and look for a cross drilled rubber exhaust hanger but the torch fixed it in less than 5 mins.

 

Bend or cut/weld

 

Yeah I tried to bend it cold and broke it off and put a small hole in the pipe......Looks like i need to take it to an exhaust shop and have them weld it. Anyone know a place in North County San Diego who welds stainless exhaust?

 

Ask a buddy!!! Otherwise should still be cheap.

 

Some of the stock exhaust systems have the rear hanger facing back to front and others have it facing 90 degrees to the side. There is a rubber hanger mount (might be Dynomax or Walker) that works for the 90 degree hangers. Otherwise you would need to bend it or have a new one welded up.

Walker part # 35284 might work.
