That is odd. I would think you would need some kind of support. All the after market systems I have seen all had the tabs. can you get someone to weld them on?

What do you mean there are no tabs for the spring hangers? Everything on the B&B system has threaded tabs unless they were ground off. Do you have a pic of your concerns so we can advise you further? The short end of the story is if the tabs are gone you have two choices. Get tabs welded back onto the system or use the generic metal strap exhaust hangers. GC

John, I went back and looked at my pics, some you may not have, there is another tab on the second pipe you can't see on the bottom. These are for the factory exhaust hangars just behind the resonator. Then there are the two muffler hangars. As far as I know these are the four attachment points, not sure about two others?
