Default magnaflow rattle

so i just installed my magnaflow cat back exhaust last night. very nice exhaust . the thing is it rattles. if im to replace the stock rubber things that go around the hangers will that stop it. and where they expect u to put the exhaust clamp would it just be better to have it welded. or wut?

did you put the flange in between the cat and the exahust if not it will rattle, make sure all nuts/bolts are tight. Then come back if that doesnt work.

yep checked all bolts. there 2 flanges that came with the kit. did it matter how they went. i put the shiny one between the cat and exhaust. and the oher one by where the exhaust connects at axle. all of my exhaust have rattled. could the rubber things be stretched and let it move freely

it might be touching that shield that sits in front of the gas tank and it makes a rattle?
