do they have any hooks in the centre section to lift the exhaust up because i've got a problem with the exhaust hitting the rear beam and the entire section seems to be relying on the one hook at the back on the back box and the connection to the cat?? any ideas?

had the same problem, my rearbox had been slipping out from the connection, so try to push it if its loose. and push it back as far it goes. if your car is lowered much, might be something else...

yeh i had the problem and it was loose so i redone it and was ok for a short while but now its doing it again, will have a look. when u say push it back do you mean push it towards the engine or push it towards the back of the car, because it its to forward the rubbers slide off the exhaust as there are no stops on the pegs to prevent the rubbers slipping. will pull the exhaust as far to the back of the car as i can

meaning that push the rearbox connection as far it will go on the centre pipe connection. cos if its loose the whole exhaust will drop and hit the beam.
and what it caused to me while it was hitting the rear beam,specially in big bumbs it had twisted, the centre pipe. so if centre pipe is hitting body, you might need to heat it and twist it in to near original.and what is good to check is the spanner,if its not a proper one, change it, many times will help.
