    Having a little trouble.. Today I started hearing a squeaking sound, and when i closed the door at a grocery store i heard the squeak coming from the muffler..
    Moved it, and it continued to squeak.. I'd love to know there is any quick fixes to this problem? :/

    Is it on the left side? Mine would do that after the exhaust warmed up. There are two hangers just after the mufflers, and one of my hangers were hitting the muffler itself. I just put a piece of rubber over the hanger tip.

    if you are changing the rubber hangers in the back, there are 2 bolts holding a bracket that the rubber hangers hook too, remove those 2 bolts, and then they will be cake to replace.

    you also have a few more hangers, check to see that they are all still there, they get old sag and disappear. ( the 2 up by the cat like to break, i lost both of mine already ) and then stuff starts to move around.
