Flowmaster 7.5L exhaust

I got a Flowmaster exhaust kit from summit and the hangers before the muffler are way long. Has anyone installed this kit and if so what did you do to get your hangers to work?

You rotated the clamp or the rubber hanger? I rotated my rubber hanger 180° and it was still about 1 1/2" to low. The only thing I can think of is to cut the hanger where it bends and bend it in a different spot where it will line up with the rubber hanger.

I see what you did now. You rotated the muffler. I did that but I don't like how low that puts the exhaust. I would like to keep it as far up as I can since I do a lot of back Woods wheeling. Don't want it getting smashed by a rock or whatever else might just appear out of the ground unexpectedly. Lol

Once you get it squared away, you'll love it. Good luck. I have Flowmaster with 7.5 on my '90 F250 5 speed, but, sorry, I did not install myself.
