Size hose clamp for rattling heat shield

kamlung · Jun 27, 2012

does anyone know what size hose clamp i need for the DP/main cat heat shield? i started to hear a rattle this past weekend and when i peeked under the car last night, i could see that the welds were broken off...

i wonder if i could just drill out the weld and maybe rivet it instead? the hole is a bit big tho...

I would just remove it.I have removed all my main cat heat shields when installing my Lotus style exhaust.I had a similar rattle before and it was the heat shield on the cat where the 2 pipes going into 1.

I used the two biggest clamps available at autozone and screwed them together to form one large clamp that held the heat shield and it has worked for the past 4 years.
