b&b exhaust problems need help please :(
Hi all,
I have a 99 c5. I got a b and b bullets exhuast 2 years ago which I love btw, the hanger on the exhuast keeps on breaking, first it happned to passenger side I got a shop to weld it for like 90 dollars. Now same thing is happening to driver side. The hanger I'm referring to is right next to the tips.
Is there any warrenty on these.
Anyone have any luck with getting the exhuast replaced or same problem.
Thanks in advanced
I got the exhuast from ecklers.com if it matters.

Sounds as though you bought this system, brand new. If so, I'm pretty sure you have a life time warrenty, with the manufacturer BB. (Billy Boat)
If you look to the left hand side of this page, you will see B&B add under exhaust. I would contact them by phone, letter, e-mail, etc. They will probably have you ship your end piecs to them and send out new replacements. Good luck.

Contact B&B directly - they have been pretty good about standing behind their products from reading the posts here on the forum.

Same thing happened to mine several years ago but that was the 1st gen of B&B Bullets...since then they have corrected the problem with the hangers with a new beefy hanger.
I called and they had me send my exhaust back and they replaced it with the second gen exhaust with the new hangers.
I assume they will do the same with yours but you will need to send it back when you receive the new version.
See pics below.
This is where they break and I welded mine until I received the new system
See the difference now between the old hanger and the new hanger

same thing happened to my bb bullets. I didn't even buy them myself they came on my car when I bought it. BB still fixed it free of charge, all I had to do was pay shipping there. They even shined my exhaust ans sent it back brand new looking. They have great customer service.
