Terry, this server does not store your pics. You need to use a photo hosting service like photobucket. When you upload, set your photo preference to 15" screen, which is just about perfect for everyone. Place your cursor on the photo and a pop down menu will appear. Copy the code that starts with img and paste that and your photo will appear for us as we browse your thread.

Now, as to your problem. I have never seen one that wasn't pinched, even my stock 2.8L pipe was. It is done so that the pipe can clear the front diff/driveline when stuffed. Don't be surprise if you dent it some time down the pike. I am glad you solved your ticky sound though. I have often said that the 4.0 exhaust is far too restrictive.
