6.2 Stainless works rear exit (hanging low / not straight)

[zer0gravity]

I just had my SW headers and rear exit exhaust installed (about 1 month ago) and my left pipe is "hanging lower" than my right. The pipes are sitting at different levels and looks like its drunk! I did a quick look under, and can only note that the left side touches the spare tire and didn't see a factor exhaust hanger being used past the spare.

I'll take a picture when I get back, currently traveling for work.

There should be one by the spare, behind the mufflers, and after the x or y pipe.

I think those are being used then. I'm not sure why it is hanging so low.

had the same issue except both of my pipes were aimed at a horrible angle down. couldn't get them level. eventually took the exhaust off because it was too aggressive but would have taken it off because of this issue as well...

I had a pro shop do the install so I'm confident it was done correctly. not sure what the issue was in the end...

mine aren't perfect but I don't think they are that bad.

So is this just part of the "SW look?" I didn't notice it when it was first installed, but man its really is funny looking. If the vendor from SW could pop in and explain whats up, it might be helpful.

I didn't have this issue. When installing my headers and now exhaust I went direct to the SW site to view the picture so I knew how everything needed to line up. Otherwise, it doesn't turn out right. Lol

I have the true duals out the factor exit. They were level, but I modified them a bit to keep it off of the spare tire. I add in the OEM heat shield from the old exhaust. Now my pipes do not sit at the same height. The rear one is a bit higher.

I've also noticed that my rear exhaust hanger broke. Cracked right at the weld on the hanger to the pipe clamp. Same issue as @bigred1097

Red - how did you fix the issue?

Sounds to me like a factory issue with SW. perhaps the mandrel bend was not up to specs and was sent to you anyway. Call them and see if they will send another rear hanger set up. After all it is a pretty penny for that set up and you want your truck to look exactly as they advertise. Bad ass! Don't settle for just ok, you won't be happy.

The rear exit doesn't match the stock exhaust exactly bend for bend over the rear axle. Stock - the exhaust runs stacked on top of each other as it goes by the spare tire. The stainless works - the exhaust runs side by side, which puts it into the spare tire.
