Check your hangers! 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be BrickOCheese on  Sat Mar 1 10:24 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Well, to be honest, only one good hanger is holding it. I'm using the half-deteriorated one on the other hanger (not sure it does much). I can't see how anyone without a lift and some special leverage tool can get both on there. Besides the nice fellow who worked on it last manged to bend that bracket pretty good so the thing is no longer lined up right.

I tried the jack, couldn't get it set quite right by myself. And I was a little nervous I'd over do it. I just heaved it with a bit of contortion and leg power. Whole back end of the car was up on ramps, so that helped.

I have significantly reduced the play in the whole thing though. I think she'll hold until I do the cat back the right way. Got 1 more year before another emmissions test, so we wait. One more winter like this and all the salt should just about finish the rest.
