exhaust rattle

[The Ninja]

exhaust rattle...its bad. At certain rpms it gets worse, at idles its bad. how would i go about fixing it. I've gotten under the car and the whole cat-back system is loose.

[R3RUN]

Whats loose about it? Did you try tightning up all the nuts on the exhaust?

[The Ninja]

i didn't raise the car. I don't kno where the bolts are.

and its loose like...i push it and it swings and hits w/e it hits that makes the rattle sound. I guess its more of a bad hanger/mount. How much am i lookin at to get it fixed? Its so annoying,a nd i'm just tired of it.

shouldn't be that much hel just go buy some new hangers and fix it yourself..:goodjob: you kow the rubber hangers...

[The Ninja]

ok....how much are they? and where could i get one?? and how would i go about installing it?

[Mchnhead2k5]

u can find some at pep boys, autozone, and just any autopart store

[The Ninja]

do i buy the hangers by the engine? or by the chassis? i'm confused....please somebody help me.

[Mchnhead2k5]

u should just be able to buy the hangers themselves.

[The Ninja]

i kno but do i buy them based on what engine i have or what chassis? can i jerry rig any other kind of hanger or are there universal hangers? i went to autozone and the closest one i could find was for a 96'ish prelude i think. Will this work for my car? or should i order polyurethane hangers?

it really doesnt make that big of a difference. just buy probably the smallest ones they have. itll probably be oval shaped. it doesnt matter what engine or chassis, its just a piece of rubber to hold up the exhaust. make sure to get a new muffler bearing too, itll help stop the rattle too

[The Ninja]

hmm alright...

[The Ninja]

how hard is it to replace the hangers? basicly support the exhaust... pull of hte hangers and put in the newones and i'm good to go?

[3kgtdrvr]

yup, they might be tough to get off so u might have to lube them up a bit and get like a pry bar or something. if theyre on there and in one piece then they should be fine though, ones probably missing of ur hitting a heat shield or something then

also some big ass plyers might come in handy too!!!:D :goojob:
