Default Uneven Exhaust Tips!

Ok I got my JBA H/Mids and Borla Stingers installed for $60(local shop left the mufflers hanging crappy), then had the hangars bent later for $50 to have the mufflers hanging right(Meineke). Now I don't know how long it's been like this, but I just noticed my left tip sticks out farther then my right one [:@]. Maybe 1/2"-3/4". Looking stright down at the muffler on the left you can read the Borla Logo, but on the right you can barely see it. It's bugging me a little so what can I do? I don't want to start moving stuff that I don't know how to fix and then ruin the alignment because the mufflers are finally hanging at the right height. If you must have pics, I'll post them tomorrow, it's too dark now.

Thanks!

Try loosening the over axle pipe up by the H part and pull the pipe out a bit till they look right and tighten back up ( 4 bolts i believe ). It's really hard to get them 100% Perfect but u can getit pretty close. Ask someone to spot you while your under pullingit out till its evensou dont have to keepgoin back n forth from under the car to the back to check it out.

Make sure u use stands just to be safe while your under there.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for the help but I don't have stands [:@]. It's a tight fit without them, so I don't know what I'm gonna do. Any other suggestions?

you paid someone to bend the hangers. most of the tip you just back the bolt off - adjust - and tighten. wala.

Uneven exhaust tips come standard on most Mustangs and Shelby's are a little better but far from perfect as well!![:@]

Yes, but my exhaust is aftermarket. I'm just wondering if I try moving it, should I move the muffler where it connects to the midpipe or move the midpipe where it connects to the H?
