how quick are you actually going over speedbumps?

well the beam is connected to both sides so if the exhaust did smack off it, i guess you would just guess its both sides..

i mean just get underneath the rear and push you exhaust up and down to just check, takes 15 seconds to do..

aint going fast over the bumps and i just had a look at theexhaust an one of the rubers have broken on it so its only held on my 1 ruber wich looks like its on its last legs and i did move the exhaust up and down its not that and the noise is not just from speed bumps its normal road pot holes aswell

i would put my money on it being the exhaust bud, exhaust only held on with 1 rubber and it happens when theres people n the back which makes the rear end lower, so theres less room for the exhaust between underneath and the rear beam..

i would replace all the exhaust rubbers with strong new ones, maybe even just undo the exhaust clamps and just twist the exhaust round so it gives you more clearance..

A scrappy would be a better bet than having to deal with getting one off here.

Definitely get new rubbers, they cost pocket change.

I wouldn't however say that the exhaust is hitting the rear axle, because you have standard suspension on. Unless the exhaust was hanging seriously low, it wouldn't hit the axle with nobody in the back. Plus you'd know if it was doing that for sure by the rather loud noise it makes that sort of sounds like DONK.
