When you tighten the clamps, just snug them enough to hold shape then check your clearances,the center brace and the spare tire well especially.It's a simple install.Also,if you hold the cat pipes and rotate them together,with the x-pipe in place,it will raise the x-pipe and give you good clearance over the center brace.Just take your time and don't tighten down till you are sure of fit,again,Don't Tighten Until You Are Sure.

You need at least 3/4 inch clearance around the whole exhaust when cold because the stainless really expands.If you have that start checking for rubs.If you disconnected the battery for any length of time you need to set the MDS for your mileage to come back.There is a procedure somewhere in the owners manual,or just wait till it comes back on its own.

How close are the tips to the rear fascia,that may be your vibration there.
