My problem was one of the cat's nuts was stuck!!
Boy did it scream as I took it off !!!
I decided to knock the studs out and use stainless nuts and bolts so I don't have the same problem next time.

Here's a repeat of my post above regarding the use of WD-40.

As CoralDoc said: WD-40 will often completely destroy exhaust hangers, they pretty quickly turn into goo. That being said and I agree with it, I have used WD-40 on my S2000 rubber hangers (had nothing else around at the time so I figured I would just replace the hangers in the near future) and I have had no problem with them turning to goo over the last 6 months. Perhaps the S2000 hangers are made of a different material than other rubber hangers. It probably does not hurt that my new exhaust weighs 12.7 lbs either. I would use a silcone spray or some soapy water just to play it safe.

Sorry I never updated with pics. I have not been able to upload my pics to this site. I'm not very computer savvy and I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.
