    I dont mean to sound stupid, but I cant figure out what and how to drill holes mean and do! :frusty::frusty::frusty:

    This is my set up and I have tried more the 3 times with the pax side and thats the best I get!

    Okay, in these latest pics it does still look off ... If I may ask, did you try using a jack? And if so, where on your passenger side pipe did you support it from?

    Which side do you like better as far as spacing? You guys could always loosen the driver's side pipe and pull it down a bit, then tighten. Or even down a little and up on the passenger side. I did pull my driver's side down a bit, because the pipe was jumping up just high enough to hit the body on that side. Just a thought.

    I used the jack and cloth and placed it right under the TRD tip!

    I did try the DS lowered but it kept going back to same height as first set!

    I like the DS because it is about 1" from hitting the body!

    Just a thought... anyone thought of bending the hanger rod on the pipe slightly down on the passenger and up a little on the driver? This would drop the driver slightly and raise passanger slightly.

    I'm reluctant to drill the holes bigger for fear the outlets will be off...

    Thoughts?

    Are you supporting it from where the catalytic converter mounts to the muffler? Or the tail pipe.

    Yeah, if I remember correctly I had mine supported right at the tail pipe / tip.

    Pictures of mine ...

    Exactly, looks almost identical to my set up, lower at the Pax side, I tried 3 times last month and gave up because the 4th time I almost went into get my Benelli to just put it to sleep, lmao!

    Did you finally fix it evenly or is yours still the same as mine, low on Pax side!

    Not yet.

    Still low on pass side... haven't tried my theory with the hangers yet or the redrilling.

    Drilling the holes will be last for me.

    Exactly my same thought,

    I figure if we still the holes, through time they will still slide back to same spot!

    Thanks for everyone on this thread for making me look, now I think my passenger side dips down. It measures about the same but dips?
