catback keeps moving on me
For some reason the mufflers/catback on my car keep moving and i need to continually push them back into place and attempt to tighten the bolts on the muffler clamps. Any other possible causes? Thanks.

What kind of clamps are you using? If they're the narrow band clamps that some Exhaust Makers supply, they don't tighten very well. I'd recommend getting some 3" wide stepped stainless band clamps for 2- 1/2" pipe from Jeg's or Summit that go completely over the joint and both pipes. They'll hold and seal the joint or you could just use a small stainless sheetmetal screw at the joint thru both pipes.
