Exhaust realignment after 3k miles?

[MrVu1101]

Hey guys -

So it was just pointed out to me that right side is sticking out more than the left on my bolt on Magnaflow... I did it in the dark because of stupid working hours :doh:

It's not super noticeable, but I kind of can't unsee it at this point. Would it be problematic to remove and realign after 3-4k miles?

sounds like just needs slight adjustment

not a bad idea to make sure it's all tight anyways.

The only time I do it in the dark is if she's ugly........LOL

On a serious note, your fine with re-measuring and trimming if it needs to be done.

I've got about the same mileage on mine and I need to readjust since I've noticed some hitting during turns or bumps. After seeing the before and after video of the BMR cradle lockouts, I can see why I'm getting the pipes hitting.

The clamps need to be re-torqued after a trip or two. I usually do this at least twice and the mufflers stay put.

It would be a good idea to get under there and check everything out for sure even after just the first few drive cycles. Slight readjustment should get it taken care of.

yep, never hurts to recheck everything, same thing we tell guys with blower installs

I wonder if I can use this excuse on the wife to install my new Steeda springs I picked up last week.
"No Honey, I'm just re-adjusting the exhaust system since it's hitting. I'm not making mods (AKA: Spending HER money) Oh Damn! Look, I forgot to swap out the muffler springs while I was under here the first time. Better take care of that now!"
