Default Flowmaster American Thunder SUCKS!

Just got it in the mail, was real pumped to put it on, after fighting with the old exhaust for about an hour, I was able to start lining up the new one. I am very precise, and take my time with everything, but this friggen exhaust fits like crap! im wondering if i got one bad from the factory? everything lines up, until you get to the tailpipes, they are uneven, they dont come out the rear bumper spots at an even distance. The only solution I see is to bend the factory hangers, but I dont think I should have to.. I have messed around, twisting the pipes, trying to make it right, but after two days, im throwing my hands up, anyone have any advice, or experience with this exhaust?

Thanks in advance,

James

Default Does not sound right

Should line up with no issues. Everything should line up, I would call the manufacturer.

With multi-piece kits it is all about how you clamp them.

Right on! Hang all the parts, adjust, then start clamping front to rear, holding in place while tightening, there's play inside the joints to adjust perfectly(in/out,side/side, up/down) while tightening...Best result: 2-man job..
