    Default my exhast hanger support is bent



    its the one next to the gearbox that attaches the cat to the car. What should I do, remove it, bang it into place and be done. Why would it bend like that. I noticed it for the first time today.

    i usually throw them away and do without, but you can bang/pry it straight
    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    Hi Kristian.

    I'll guess that it was caused by a less-than-optimal exhaust removal job (ie -- the weight of the rear 1/2 of the exhaust was on the bracket and additional pressure bent it).

    Just pry it back into place -- no big deal, mate


    best, whit
