Got a 1.6 corsa with a Sebring back box on it. Car is lowered 60mm and now the exhaust clamp is banging on the rear axle. Any ideas how I can stop it. All I keep hearing from garages at the moment is "the only way to stop it is by raising the suspension, as it is too low". I want to keep it this low as I like the look, but the noise is very annoying. Any ideas how to stop it??

Many thanks in advance

i had this problem before i got a new exhaust, the clamp sits right above the beam well annoying

i know it wasnt the best way but to silence it i got a piece of exhaust rubber mounting and taped it to the beam

thank you. It is really annoying. Where can I get this exhaust rubber mounting stuff from, as Halfrauds did not have any?

Sorry for being a bit not with it. Do you mean turn the cat over so bottom at top and top at bottom?

if you lying under the car undo the clamp for you back box and then the clamp by the back of the cat
then twist the centre section so the bend over the axel sits higher then bolt it all up
