So here are my pics.
Left tip is slightly lower


Here is part of the reason.


The right side looks ok, but it could be in there a bit more in my opinion.


Here is the left side in the rubber mount.


The bracket could be more level.


I modified the bracket and moved it about an inch to the right. I also bent the resonator hanger up a bit.


Much better.


But there is still a problem. I then removed the muffler and bent the left bracket down as far as I dared. That helped but not perfect.


Left side.


Right side.


This may seem nit-picky to some but 3/16 of an inch is noticeable.

So I made some shims for the right side out of an old car stereo install kit.


I put them under this bracket.


Here is the left side again.


And the right side after the shim is installed. Perfect!


Now that looks better!


So there you have it. This took me less than an hour to get this worked out.

I am even more happy with this exhaust now.

I am glad that I gave Berk the chance to make things right to those of us who waited. Rob contacted me about these issues before I even had a chance to contact him. I think that shows that Berk has turned a corner as far as their customer service is concerned.
