wedge problems help please

[carswaps]

My 400SE has a hole in the exhaust i can see that the near side rear driveshaft has rubbed it away
Is this a common problem?

Kind regards for any help

It's well known but shouldn't happen if the fixings are good. I did 60K miles with no problems.

It sounds like the same one I looked at recently, in Sheffield. The guy said a new clutch had been fitted and in the process they had to move the exhaust - sounds like it wasn't remounted properly.

Try Richard Thorpe at RT Racing in Sheffield, he will sort you out:

Sometimes - having to much luggage can cause that .. it happened to me once.
