Annoying Rattling

An easy fix that I did for my Berk cbe was to take some pipe clamps and put them over the rubber grommets on the hangers and crank them tight.

A jack was used to lift the exhaust prior to tightening them up. It gave me a fingers width clearance from the brace and has been good now for the past 6 months.

Thanks for the input! This IMO is a better fix than adding washers to the cross member bolts....
