Recently fitted a greddy exhaust but the drivers side tip hangs lower than the passenger side.

Okey cheers I will have a look tonight :thumleft:
What can I do if one of the hangers is bent? Tap the hanger with a rubber mallet and force it back into shape?

Pretty much, just do it a bit at a time and check that it's starting to line up... you can always heat it also however it could be another issue. I had a similar issue once and I put washers under a mount to lower the exhaust to the correct position :thumleft:
