That's because the hanger is completely rusted off on both ends. That rusty piece of metal coming down from the body is supposed to have a hook, as does the exhaust pipe, with a rubber donut holding the pipe up so it is centered in the hole in the bumper.

The 850 exhaust was redesigned since your car was built and a new rear hanger is required along with a new muffler/exhaust (one piece!). Time to get out the baling wire and create a temporary hanger.

Shipping a muffler from Tasca, and hanger, might cost more than getting one from the local dealer. Oh, you will also need a new forward clamp and screws to attach it to the CAT pipe. And lift the car at least 24 inches!
