Torque Solution Exhaust Mounts

I recently bought torque solution exhaust mounts and they don't fit the AMS dual exhaust (I'm assuming stock as well). The biggest problem is the two rear exhaust mounts. I could only hang on one of the metal hangers in driver side rear mount in order to get it to fit. I also had to use a clamp to squeeze the metal hangers on the exhaust in order to get them to fit into the passenger side rear hanger. The exhaust hangs a bit lower at the muffler tip and isn't as flush. Anyone else have problem with torque solution exhaust mounts? It's bad enough that I am looking for some different exhaust hangers, anyone know of some good ones?

Okay, just to make sure I did it right. You put the two exhaust prongs in the two holes shown below?

Can't you only put them on one way?

Spray a **** ton of wd40 on the hole and the hanger and they should slide right on.

I installed them no problem with the Perrin Turbo back with no problems. Use a little silicone spray and don't slip them on fully until you have all of them all on . A real PITA to get off once they snap into place. Exhaust sounds perfect with more low end grunt. Highly recommend them. Excellent customer service directly from Torque. Can't say the same for most other companies selling EVO parts

I hung the rubber hanger on the car first before hanging the exhaust prongs. I had to get a clamp just to squeeze the prongs together, with quite a bit of force, in order to get them to fit in the two holes shown above. I was just wondering if it should of been the two holes diagonal to each other. See picture below, this is for the rear hangers only btw.

AHh that's what I figured, put them on the car before fitting them to the exhaust hangers. It's going to be a PITA to get them off. My set up is the first pic. I'm wondering if I should just cut the ones on there off and order some new ones haha.

^I'm pretty sure the second pic is right. I've installed alot of X exhausts in the past few years.

OP, you can just take some wd40 and a pry bar to remove the rubber hanger. I wouldn't waste money and buy new ones.

I bought these but haven't put them on yet, I'll give everyone a for sure answer when I get it installed.

Yeah - I am trying to understand what advantage these provide. I feel like the rubber stock ones would actually help keep vibration and harshness low. I think for uber low vehicles, this poly hanger will keep the exhaust from moving and hitting the ground !?!
