Sorry for a real stupid quesiton, but I purchased a pair of rear exhaust tailpipe brackets and cant figure the darn things out:confused:

Does anyone have a picture (or a thousand words) showing how they bolt up to the frame? I guess they go just forward of the rear bumper and my current configuration exhaust ends just past the rear end.

Sorry no pics handy.

There's a diagonal slot and hole in the rear frame rails. If you have a factory type hanger, it should be pretty self explanatory. IIRC they're left and right specific. Also the actual hanger part will rotate within the rubber allowing side or top mount with the clamp. Good luck.

there's 2 types of hanger for these cars....the one that bolts to the side of the frame (as described above) and there's one that actually slides over the top frame rail from the inside and bolts thru the top rail from the bottom into the hanger......hope thats not too confusing
