I've been following this thread .......and has me a bit nervous.
I too had fitment issues with my tails I ordered from AAM not too long ago. The problem was that the driver’s side fitment was way off. (The passenger side fit fine.) Looking at both short tails side-by-side, there were obvious differences; passenger side was longer, weld location for the rubber bracket were different, and the driver's side bracket was taller. When I initially tested fitted the driver’s side, I knew there was no way in hell this was made correctly and/or thought this was another vehicle's tail. Long story short.....I worked with AAM, in which, Jason provided great and timely customer service. I was shipped another full set they said was actually tested fitted on their car to make certain I wouldn't have any issues. However, I did have to use two provided spacers on the driver's side and affix the tips on the passenger side outward more to even alignment between both sides. No big deal. In the end, I was satisfied with the look and sound. Being satisfied with AAM's customer service and wanting to complete my full cat-back, I ordered the mid-pipe. My mid-pie is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I want to install myself, but now I'm a bit nervous. If I do attempt to install myself - and run into fitment issues - I believe I don't have the knowledge and/or tools to make the necessary corrections/modifications. I think it might be best if a shop does it. That way, at least it'll be on a lift vice stands, and they would be more experienced to handle any issues that might come up. I think most would agree with my reasoning? |
