Are there any guidelines for how much clearance to leave your mufflers/piping in expectation of the exhaust system "growing" when it heats up??
The body of my muffler is about 1/2" away from my trailer hitch. I've noticed that when the system is cold it never contacts the body of the vehicle. However, when it finally heats up, i can hear the muffler rattle an mildly hit the body of the car. Thoughts???
I can relocate the muffler forward a little bit, but how am i supposed to expect the exhaust system to expand???
Thanks!
