Help. Do these ABs look properly lined up?
1 Attachment(s)
I'd like to have your opinion on whether my newly installed GT500 ABs are alligned properly. I feel the driver side axle-back is a little lower and juts out more. Let me know what you think? I'm debating whether or not to take it to Monroe or Meineke to re-allign itAttachment 145341. It is driving me crazy.

I can't really see it well. Could you take a pick with more light?

Looks good to me.

Pics are too dark. Can't see a thing. Sorry.

In no way could anyone tell if the drivers side tip is further out then the passenger side with a rear view; you'll nee a clear side shot.
Who did the install? You may just need to loosen the clamp, align, measure, then tighten the clamp back up. |
Drivers side looks lower based on the lower fascia line against the lower muffler case position. Better to go by the fit of the tip in the opening of the lower. Lighter pics will help.

Ignore the road. The water company is laying new pipe throughout the township so they're all torn up waiting to be replaced.
They are off a little. I think the right passenger AB is perfect and the driver side AB is out too far and needs to be pulled up a smidge. I had them put on at a shop, my buddy's shop to be exact and he did it as a favor so there is no way I'm going back complaining to him; but I'd take it to a Midas or Meineke. What do you think, leave it or bring it in to adjust it? |
Doesn't look off by much at all in those pics but is really hard to tell from a pic.
If you don't like the alignment just adjust it yourself, really pretty easy to do. Loosen the muffler to over axle pipe clamp and move the tip to where you like it and tighten it back down. |

You seriously think I can do it? Picture the most un-mechanical bonehead and I'm worse. I was thinking about trying to do it though. Where is the bolt located? The last time I tired messing with an exhaust the bolts were so tight because of the power wrench I couldn't even get them off. I guess there is only one bolt where it clamps on to the mid pipe? |
That is very, very close to perfection...I would not even adjust them or like advised above, you could probably do it your self.

I guess there is only one bolt where it clamps on to the mid pipe? Can you do it? It's a relatively simple deal and hard to screw it up so I say try it, worse comes to worse you can always run it over to the muffler shop and pay someone to do it if you aren't able to get it set like you want it. |

What? The driver's side is very noticeably lower. The muffler makes it show up even more. Pretty easy to tell. Wannabe and I can't be the only guys on here with good eyes?????? |
