Does anyone else have this issue with their aftermarket exhaust? Especially Tanabe Medllions?

I was driving behind the wife today as she was in the GS, and I noticed that the rear Tanabe cans were wobbly on every bump on the road! It looked kind of cheap a$$!

I had this issue when I first installed them, took it back to the exhaust shop, but it never went away!

I can't seem not only to get the rear cans to stay in place firm, but after some time, one needs to be re-aligned. The two rear mufflers are never aligned the same, either one hangs lower than the other, or even hangs more to one side than the other.

Any ideas?

 

Are you sure the muffler shop is doing a good job of putting it together? Ive seen lots of mufflers and never wobbly. Are they using cheap hangers?

 

Yeah the quality of Tanabe exhaust is eh... I wont speak for everyone, but the muffler hangers on my Tanabe snapped on both sides. First it happened last year, now it happened on the other side this year

 

really?! damn that sux.

mine does wobble a bit but i don't think it's much more than factory. it's the same hook. been on my car for more than 2 yrs

 

I know...... The guy at the shop where I got it fixed, told me that the metal is weak and the cans are too heavy.

 

could it be due to salt during winter too?

 

Well that's just great! How do I fix it?
