Any issue with OEM hangers or you just don't want to do business with dealership. Just give them a call to price them and then you can explore other options.

they seem to have stretched a bit, and now one sided of the exhaust hangs lower that the other sided, there's 2 hangers per side, dealers wants $14 each, so that $28 bucks per side

Yo0u can pick them up online for about $7. Your local auto parts store should carry them also (ie. Pep Boys, Autozone, etc.).

If not check with one of our vendors like:
Carson's
www.l-tunedparts.com

Sewell Lexus / Lexus-Parts
www.lexus-parts.com

Keep in mind the hangers are like the pivot point. Bit of adjustment can be done by moving the previous hang points. Getting it just perfect will be hard to achieve.

It has been a long time since I swapped to Ltuned. You can make one ring sit on top of the other to get different lengths. You can try twisting a ring too.
