Exhaust Silencer rattle
And yes, I heard "take the silencer out", or "sell the exahaust to me", or the "buy a new car" one.

If it were me I would drill a hole at the bottom of the tip where it contacts the silencer and thread a bolt into it.
Been there done that. Ask one of the vendors on this forum if they could do that for you. I doubt it would take half an hour or cost more than a 10cent bolt.

I would JB weld it only if I wanted to perm keep it in there, which I dont. With the drilling, your saying to drill and tap another bolt into it? It already has one, dont know if another one would stop that mother from rattling like a mofo.

Or you could bend the silencer a bit so it engages the tip better. For example, take a punch and poke bumps into it that radiate outwards.

Good idea, I will try the punch deal before I drill another hole in there.. even though I can do both.. I have the tools to tap the metal.
