It shouldn't sit that low, it should be in the stock location as far as I know. Was it nstalled correctly? Check those little rubber rings and make sure you didn't lose any.

Good luck.

Mine sits low as well. I have drug once, but I think that was a clamp that was facing towards the ground. You can see the resonator sitting lower than the rest of the car from a distance.

The stock resonator is smaller than the gmpp one. Thinks thats why it can be seen from a distance

Mine sits low also. You do need to take into account that the GM rez is the same diameter as the muffler. I am sitting on sportlines and I have never scrapped the rez. I have hit the Exhaust tip backing out of my drive a time or two.
