And once you have a tear there's no way of stopping it! I'll be replacing mine within the next couple of weeks... [snip] > muffler bracket on right rear [snip] What's with this bracket? On my car I had the catalytic convertor replaced by an unrestrictive piece of piping, but somehow I can't seem to get the muffler back in straight! The bracket above the alternator refuses to slide forward to where it used to sit. The muffler is seated firmly, so that's not the problem. My "problem" is that I now have one exhaust flush with the bumper (left hand side) and on the other side it's allmost an inch further out! I've been trying to get it back to where it's supposed to be, but that &%$&%^& bolt above the alternator is allmost impossible to reach with any good tools; I tried getting an air-rachet on, but I can't get it onto the bolt because of the proximity of the surrounding metal... Any tips anyone??? Thanks in advance, JAN van de Wouw Thinking Different... Using a Mac... Living the Dream...
