RMB Help
Hey everyone!
I finally got my RMB from 928 Specialists. Putting it in today. Doesn't appear too difficult.
I have the old muffler off and the new RMB attached (with the clamps), with the exception of the hangers (towards to rear of the vehicle). It looks like it should fit directly where I took out the 13 mm bolts. The hanger diameter is too big. I want to make sure it does not go somewhere else before I start drilling.
Also, I know we do not want it to touch the bumper - but it appears to be hanging too low.
Thanks for the help.

Richard,
No drilling needed, the hanger rods go thru the same bottom holes of the rubber hangers as the old muffler did, plug and play!
I find it easier to slip the hanger rods thru the rubber hangers first, then swing it up in place and install the "doughnuts" and clamps.
Let me know if you need more info.

Oh, if your rubber hangers are old and stretched out the rods may appear loose. You may want to consider replacing them. As long as they don't break from age it will be OK to use it that way until you replace the rubber hangers. If you feel you need them, the part # is 928.111.259.02 and they only cost around $6.
Glad yours made it OK, Jeannie and I spent last Saturday packing a couple dozen of those so they could leave first thing Monday.

David,
Thanks for the help. It was a tight fit - done deal. The difference that the RMB makes is truly remarkable. Thanks for all your do!
Fliegen, Nice car! Glad to share. My advice to you - get the RMB. Inexpensive upgrade - you will like the way your car sounds as much as you like the way it looks.
Happy driving!!!

[QUOTE=Pizza]are you guys buying the regular RMBs or the oval tip?
I bought the dual tip stainless steel. It is very nice and a good price too. $175.00
That's my favorite model, the one I have, and I think it is the best sounding one available.
