Has to be something to do with the hangers and the way they are mounted.

hmm. could you explain what the hangers could do to cause the muffler to break??

i just ordered magnaflows..these 2 will be my 8th muffler..and 3rd brand..

No flex. So as soon as the motor torques it twists the muffler. Post up some pics of the exhaust on the truck.

cnt right now..but ill try to explain..longtube headers..true 3" dual ran down the passenger side like a lightnings except its ran all the way to my rear bumper bent over the axle..all hangers have rubber inserts as well..the mufflers are always right in the middle of the exhaust..
