Installing my Thrush glasspack today, going on just after the cat converter. Do I use one exhaust hanger or should I use two ???

The cat is heavy! Are you still using the factory hanger on that? I would, but AT LEAST two if not three. Nothing worse that running over your own (or what used to be yours) exhaust with the rear tires!

The cat is still on it's hanger yes. So yeah I think I'll go with two then, one at the joint pipe to muffler and one at the very end of the muffler

I know my system didn't have any hangers between the stock muffler hangers and the one cat hanger, but I thought twice about this once I saw the thrush muffler
