Two choices if you are serious about it stopping..<P>1) Weld. there is no better solution<P>2) Get a Metal Strap on there, not half as good as the weld though. <P>i would think if you wanted the muffler to be half funtional, you would want it to muffle its OWN noise before it muffles the exhaust.. LOL<P> :D
