This is very timely... I ordered last month a Stainless Steel Exhaust kit
(RR1167SS) from Rimmer Bros for my 71 TR6, and had various issues too.
Rimmer "Offer No.3 Atlanta Parts" sale basically offered parts that were
pre-shipped and duty paid to Atlanta -- a Stainless exhaust with shipping
for $205... not a bad deal.
The box arrived pretty beaten up by RPS (FedEx subcontrator) but that's
another story. After the installation, the muffler doesn't look quite
right. After installing the exhaust system, I noticed that the twin
tailpipes are not level - left pipe hangs lower than the right. I tried
adjusting my old brackets/straps, but they don't make up the difference. I
installed new straps form TRF, but no difference. The right of the muffler
can't be lowered due to the Breast Plate (Rimmer part: lower,RR1321).
I've written Rimmer, but their auto-mail reply states the sales rep won't
be back til May 29 (probably a typo, more likely August 29th).
Take a look at my pictures... any advice would be appreciated.
