got a new exhaust, apexi n1, and it has this hanger that goes in a little hole thats sits horizontal more towards the cat... anyway, it wouldnt go in that for some reason so it hangs a inch or more down front hat just chillin... due to that, my reaonator is 1/4'' off the ground and when i make the slightest turn to the right it makes love to the ground and throws sparks.. can i just make some sorta braket and weld it to it or something? it wont break off in the midst of bumps you think? gotta do something... its almost undrivable... help if u can... thanks.

Quality welds don't break or crack. Weld a bracket and coat it so it doesn't rust. Rusted welds become brittle.

your hangers are old and loose. replace them or tighten them up with hose clamps (i have to thank zilvia for that one).

FYI hangers on greddy, apexi, blitz, hks, all break and make a nice little hole in the pipe with it.

I allways put a band around the pipe over the hanger and tack weld it as well.
