Reatta4Real Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 My exahust is sagging and rattling off the right of the rear axl. I think the rubber bands are just too streched out. The right rear band is worn about 1/2"-3/4" from the bolt; which I found when replacing the rusted bolt back there. I think this is all thats wrong but then again this is a Reatta. Anyone know of part #'s for the rubber bands? I should replace them all, I think there are 4, 2 big ones in the back then 2 smaller ones just behind the cat? Are these anything hard to come by or can I get them at Auto-Zone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawja Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 You should be able to pick them up at any auto parts store, they are not Reatta-specific parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RED891 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Here are the ones I used for the muffler 25559602 and the O ring type further up the exhaust system are 363455 both are good numbers with GM 1st lists for $12.03ea. 2nd 6.40ea. I used the ones for muffler as mine were weather cracked and one broke when I installed Flowmaster muffler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reatta4Real Posted August 28, 2003 Author Share Posted August 28, 2003 One more thing, the bolt I replaced the old rusted one with is a regular bolt from a hardware store. It seems to be absorbing the heat from the pipe as I am smelling burnt rubber. Are there specific heat resistant bolts used? (this is the bolt that goes through the small bracket on the main pipe, furthest back and to the right). I thought the old bolt was just an ordinary bolt but it was an odd size, I forget off hand, and was thicker past the threads. The type and size of the bolt would be helpful.
