    my guess is that it was not correctly aligned before it was bolted/welded in. you can use the brute force method and work it with a large breaker bar until it gets teh bend right, or you can have it rebolted/rewelded in teh correct position.

      The rear tips should be bolted in place by a clamp...loosen the clamp and wiggle it into position.

          I ended up gutting off some of the left tailpipe where it enters the muffler so that they were even from side to side.

          Since then I've cut off the tips completely and will be installing dual stainless double walled Pypes tips on both sides.
