    Last fall the heat shield on my cat converter started rattling. Truck sounded like a POS beater. I got under and found the fasteners rusted away so I pulled the heat shield off. I picked up some stainless steel hardware and just recently reinstalled the shield but it still rattles a bit so I am not sure I have it placed correctly. Over the few months I guess forgot how it was mounted. It's too cold to go out on the driveway to just experiment with it plus my big hands make access a bit challenging. It would help greatly if someone could post a photo so I can tell which half of the shield goes on top, which on bottom, and exactly how it is aligned so I can do it once and get it right.

    Thanks...
