Good Evening all,
i've just fitted a Grp. N and on the rear joint i can't seem to get it to hold up tight enough to stop the rear box twisting down

have i done something wrong?

thanks

No u havent had this problem with mine! Firstly i wedged an old piece of exhaudt rubber in the rear hanger to push it up further and then cable tied it into place then used 2 clamps on the pipe to lock that off there a really bad fit tbh especially for the money!!

hi Ryan,

is seems to be twisting at the rear join even though i have two clamps on, should i replace these with a slightly smaller clamp?

Many Thanks

Keep tightening it in different places to squash the sleeve over the centre section.

I found the clamps didnt stop it twisting just stopped the blowing ... when its twisted fully down thsts how oreca designed it to sit if u look at the bends there perfect at the lowest position and then it sits just below the bumper -.... however ive got a ph1 and i think the bunpers slightly higher so to raise the box into a position where it stayed i had to put the bk box on and in the exhaudt hanger basically wedge it so it was as high as it would go then twist into place and clamp the shhhit outta it .... i always had problems with mine blowing tho best advice dont use any paste or anything if its brand new and if its not after tine of removing mine i found normal silicone sealant sealed it perfect just black pu sealant sorted it :)

Yes it will, I had exactly the same problem. I got a garage to shorten the centre section at the cat end so I could retain my sports cat and for it to fit perfect on the hangers.
