[s-cars] exhaust started to touch body

[Wylie Bean]

I actually got the "normal" hangers from WorldPac...spec'd for a Porsche 944, for about $6 each. I posted the PN to the list, and on the QW UrS forums.
There's one hanger @ the middle muffler (right side) that's just a big rubber donut.  I didn't have that one but it's available off-the -shelf usually.

Wylie just got some chain reinforced hangers (from a *gasp* Porsche) for less that OEM.
