    2 out of 3 of mine bit the dust. One on the highway making an awful scraping sound and one this evening on a forestry road. I’ve got my passenger side cat shield left and he’s pretty loose.

    How many have you guys got left holding strong?

    Edit: should I reattach it with larger washers? It’s the one between the floor boards and the cat.

    All original here, but all the OEM clamps have been replaced with stainless snake clamps over the years. Just replaced all the bolts on the cat shields as they were about to give up the ghost. Treated the entire exhaust with Ospho and painted everything with Rustoleum High Heat Ceramic.

    Ahhh. I don’t have that type. Only the ones above between the floor boards and the exhaust.
