Message	hangers, you decide wether or not to use them. I decide to bend them at the elbow to make them fit (sorry no pictures) some people just cut them off but I'm anal retentive (ask BigTTdogg). The reason I say to first make all your bolt connections, (I did leave make all your hanger connections) except the Tpipes, then tighten. Simply because it make it easier at the end. So many times I see people connect one flange and tighten one at a time ending up with a croocket exhaust because they force it to fit. Every exhaust system is going to have some degree of variations, even identical brands and models. Remember they are cut, fit and welded together, not molded.
