hey there my dad has a st170 and the heat sheild rattles like a b**ch is it a good idea to rip the f***er aff??
 
usually fine to rip them off mate . were always doing it at work due to them rattling
 
its there for a reason so i never think rippin those off is a good idea, get a huge hoseclamp and tighten it thats what we do at my work.
 
Why does everyone rip it off? I just take out the 2 bolts and it comes out just fine :p
 
cats get extremely hot and that heat shield is there to keep other parts cool from heat soak, i.e. fuel lines, brake lines, your feet.
