I noticed from a side view that a portion of my exhaust before the rear axle sags really low. I tried to shove it back up but it didn't seem to budge. Only thing I've done exhaust wise is the midlength and the downpipe.

My fist is flat on the ground with my thumb sticking mostly straight up.



Any ideas anyone?

That is the lowest part of the vehicle. Both my cars have had this part of the exhaust hang low. You can actually see it if you are looking at the driver side of the car from a distance. Not sure if your case is any lower than mine though...

normal

you could get shorter hangers if it is banging on the rear beam

I just bought ZZPs 2.5"cat back so I'll put that on and hopefully it doesn't sag either.

Will the cat back on my SS/NA work for on a Cobalt LT?
