I am having on heck of a time tring to get the tailpipes to line up properly. I did not get any kind of documentation or reference with the system. I see that there are brackets welded close to the end of the tailpipe but have no idea where to mount them. I figure someone else has run into this problem and saw something that I am not seeing, but frustation does that to you sometimes! :) Thank you for any advice you can give me. BTW the car is a 1987 GN with stock cat and DP.

i used the stock hangers and hung the exhaust instead of drilling into my car like the hooker kit wants. I jsut took the stock hangers and welded them straight down to the exhaust pipes and it fits much better with no banging around. A friend of mine drilled his frame like the hooker kit says and his cat hits the floorboard on the road. I like the fact that the exhaust can move when the car launches and wond bind up or tweak the car in any way - it's kindof floating there on it's own.
oh well - just my 2¢..
