Hey guys. So the heat shield on my cat was rattling so a few days ago i removed it. I havent done any long drives so i cant say weather the floor will get hot or not. I just wanted to see if anyone thinks it will be a problem or not?

Got a question, to the guys dumping their exhaust before the rear axle, what are you using for support? My tail pipe broke in half just before the rear hanger and I'm looking for a good place to support the weight from so I'm not stressing the manifold too much.

there is a factory hanger there? i dont recall seeing one, but my rear hanger broke once and i fixed it, now the pipe broke just before the hanger...i'll look by the back seat for something that may have broke. just need a good spot for it.



I was in the jeep when it happened lol. The floor was rusted through though.
