After having the Hotchkis installed by a shop last week, I've been having fun cruising up and down slopes of SoCal. Did Turnball Canyon & Palos Verdes over weekend. The car felt great around turns, I wish I had done it sooner..

However, in the last few days I noticed a rattling sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. At first I thought the Hotchkis sway worked itself loose. After crawling under the car for an hour, I found out the one of the mounting bolt on the exhuast mid-pipe was missing. That left the mounting brace and the frame hitting each other making the rattling noise. I am guessing the shop forgot to put it back after the installation.

Since I live an hour away from the shop, I don't feel like driving back to get one tiny bolt. I was wondering if somebody can help me figure out what type and size of bolt I need for the mounting brace? Here is the diagram from the ESM:


Thanks in advance

I believe you are referring to the nut and not the bolt right? IIRC that nut is a 10mm. It's been awhile since I've touched my exhaust system though.

You're right, it's a nut, not a bolt. My bad. Thanks, I'll go get a 10mm nut tomorrow and get rid of that irritating rattle.

Just wondering why in the hell they unbolted your exhaust to install your sways... also steve what setting do you have your bars on.

Hotchkis sways were the greatest buy so far!!!!!!!!!!!
