i just installed a cat-back stillen exhaust on my 03 G sedan and everytime i hit a bump it feels like 1 of the pipes is rattling against something...i love the sound of the exhaust but the rattling sound is driving me crazy...it may be the pipe that goes over the sway bar but who knows...i did the install myself and everything came out perfect EXCEPT FOR THIS FRIGGIN RATTLING!!! somebody lend some advice please...thanks guys

Something is probably not tight. Maybe a gasket got pinched weird or something?

How did you face the clamps? Just go back under and double check your clearance around everything. Adjust as needed.

I have the same exhaust and don't have this problem. Also did my install myself. Check under the car, something is loose or not installed properly. While you're under there push up on the exhaust and move it around to duplicate the rattling and figure out where it's coming from.

make sure the forward mount braket nuts are tight (the ones near rear door)... its metal on metal and will clatter.

^ +1. i was going to mention the heatshield as well. make sure the exhaust is not contacting the heatshield.
