It's a Wortec catback and seems to have dropped off it's back box brackets.
Very odd.

There's only a limited view without a ramp but am I right in saying that there's a forward facing hanger mounted on the body and a rearward facing one and the hard rubber brackets on the exhaust box just need to be slipped over them?

Is it as easy as it looks or is there some devilshly fiendish Rubiks cube sort of thing where one wont fit if the other is on already...etc?

The rear box has two hangers bent into an "L" shape and the car has two hangers also in a "L" shape and there is a rectangular rubber mount with two holes fixing the two together......

it sounds like the rubber mounts have sliped off so just need pushing back on......

It is a bit of a fiddle but can be done without special tools.

Any problems tell me and I will sort it for you.............

Thanks (Paul, that you?) ... now done.

Should the hangers that are attached to the car have any stops on the end in the same way as the exhaust ones do?
Mine doesn't and it looks like it'll come off again at some point...just a matter of time kinda thing.

Ah.....sounds like you have lost the clips that hold the rubbers on to the cars hangers, they are small round spring clips and have been known to "spring off".....

I will talk to "Caspy" about sending you some..................
