    exhaust pipes leaking!

    both exhaust pipes from the cats back are leaking at the welds.
    shit... there is also a small hole right behind the passenger muffler. it looks like the hanger tore off a small hole on the pipe....

    i'll take some pictures...

      pipes aren't old at all. but "all" the welds are beyond shit and awful. i was going to patch everything but it would be stupid in the long run. i plan on tearing it all down... maybe bolt-ons' instead of welds. On the bright side, i can now put stang headers =) and make sure that everything is done properly.

        From the factory, there are flanges behind the rear converters and the H or Y bolts up to that. If those are gone, probably some exhaust shop did a butcher job making up new pipes. Seen that a few times, not sure why there is such an aversion to welding new flanges on with the new pipes.
