hey guys,

i have b&b bullets on my '05 and just recently (at least i just noticed it) im getting a vibration from what sounds like the passenger side at about 2000-2500 rpm in gears 1 & 2. it sounds like a piece of plastic is loose or something. has anyone else had this problem & does anyone know how to fix it.

Brian

Funny because I am getting a plastic ticking sound from the passenger side sounds like its coming from the right rear side or a wire banging around in the over head beam behind the passenger seat.

The same thing happens with my magnaflows, but I can't see anything obvious. Maybe it's normal, since it's sporadically.

I installed some bullets on a c6 and noticed that the right rear muffler (not really a muffler) hits the heat shield on the floor board right after ther axle. Owner had a little rattle every so often. Bent the shield away alittle for more clearance.
