exhuast mount rubbers
« on: 04 May 2009, 20:21 »
since lowering my car last week my exhaust is rattling like crazy, was wondering if other people have had this problem and if so did harder exhaust rubber mounts stop it?

basically the exhaust doesnt go very high over the rear axel. So when you lowered it you pushed the axel up onto the exhaust.

I curred this by gettin a custom exhaust made that goes up high over the beam, now its 100mm down and no wrattle. lol
