In an effort to save some money, I did NOT install the tips that came with it and rather used the clips from Fabspeed and my stock tips - however, now my left tip is lower (or further away from the bumper) than my right tip.

After inspecting the Fabspeed tips I noticed that the left "pipe" that bolts on to the muffler is a bit shorter, at least in apprearance, than the right one from Fabspeed.

Will I have to use these because the Fabspeed mufflers are a bit different than stock as far as lining up?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I recently installed a Fabspeed exhaust - just the mufflers. In an effort to save some money, I did NOT install the tips that came with it and rather used the clips from Fabspeed and my stock tips - however, now my left tip is lower (or further away from the bumper) than my right tip. This bugs the crap out of me. After inspecting the Fabspeed tips I noticed that the left "pipe" that bolts on to the muffler is a bit shorter, at least in apprearance, than the right one from Fabspeed. Will I have to use these because the Fabspeed mufflers are a bit different than stock as far as lining up? Also, I was interested in ordering the dual, "s" look for my exhaust tip option but am affraid that they might not line up as my factory tips do not line up...am I stuck using the Fabspeed tips? Thanks for your help!

POST 2Original post

I had a girlfriend that had a similar problem. We fixed her with 9 pounds of silicone.

POST 3Original post

there is also alot of play in the 3 bolt area (that holds the bracket to the frame)...

POST 4Original post

keep things very slightly loose until fitup is perfect, from cats to muffler and tips, then when all is good , lock em down E

POST 5Original post

Loosen the clamp at the muffler and rotate it. I had the same issue when I modded mine.
