Lower tie bar rubbing cat-back

Made a sharp turn and heard something rubbing, looked under and saw that the catback was sitting about a half inch from the tie bar and most likely rubs when i turn. Anybody have any idea how I can space them out?

Just reinstall the exhaust and when you tighten it up leave more remove in that sway bar area. Super easy adjustment that will fix it.

hmmm, that' doesn't look like a tie bar, looks like the sway bar to me.

did the hangers come with those exhaust? all you need to do is extend the hangers a bit more.

that should help.
