i feel ya bro. damn when i put on my apexi ws, them rubber hangers were a biatch, along w/ the rusted nut/bolts.


a friend and some muscle power. on my last and final hanger i stuck a screwdriver in the hole and tried to stretch it as much as i could and lubed the hook so its be easier to slide the rubber hanger over it.

which hangers you have? the ones with the 2holes or the ones with 2holes and a peice open in the middle? either way its very easy and if you look you'll figure it out.. theres a spot in the factory position to hang the rubber to find the clip and place it thru one of the opening and then place the hanger bracket on the exhaust piping/canster thru the other hole (IMO you should bend the clips so they make a hook instead of a straight line, helps keeps system from falling)

Spray down the hanger with WD40 or something, use a screw-driver or something flat like that to help you push the thing off.

i neva had any trouble hanging mine nor any of my friends own but i did learn to bend the ends of the hangers thru the rubber to help keep them from falling off the hangers

well I finally got it on this morning. I took apart the muffler section and a little wd40 helped it on. So thanks to everyone for their ideas.
