Brad  -  Since you mention below that all the hangers seem to be in
position and tight,  I will suggest that you check the engine motor mounts.
 If they are going bad, then you will have an additional plane of movement
that will put the complete exhaust system out of it's original position. 
This might be what is causing the pipe to connect to the body at the end
location.
