Exclamation Exhaust and CAT Issue

I need recommendations!!!!

I am guessing you all have this same issue if you are running cats, but my left CAT is lower then my right CAT (after the downpipe from the headers) Now that is a whole 1.5" difference. is there a way to even it out or move the cats somewhere else?? It restricts the amount of spring drop i can run.

Any ideas and tips are GREATLY appreciated!!!!

Hey! Great to see someone else from CO!!!
What I did with my 97 GT is when I was hanging the exhaust, I used a kind of stand under my car. I raised the stand up (kind of like a jackstand) under the low side, then lowered my car till it sat where I wanted it. I then adjusted the hangers and installed the rest from there. My left cat is still a little lower, but I am running ffrp c springs with no issues! Hope this helps!

I just had a shop do mine so it was up on a lift, meaning proper alignment versus laying under the car.

One thing I'm noticing now though with the car lowered is the exhaust is way too close to the ground and got hit on a speed bump. So, anyone ever cut the exhaust hanger on the pipe down some so the exhaust is higher up?
