Big lumps of metals and spanners.

Exhaust supports

Post by Roland »

Hi , anybody know where I can get a pair of late exhaust supports&straps that don't cost an arm and a leg ?
Mine are worn and rusted.
Went to go away yesterday morning and packed the van up , turned the key , he fired up and sounded like a tank. The pipe under the gearbox is split in two.
I've spent the morning removing the system and have eventually got all the studs out .

Thanks, looks like Brickwerks is my only option but at £115 I was hoping for something cheaper after getting the rest of the exhaust kit.
I'm just glad it all came off with only minor hacksaw and hammer action

Mine slightly different to yours but I needed to support one end of a silencer and found a metal strap with holes at each end which I could wrap partly round silencer. To the ends I fixed a bungee to a suitable place on engine. Still there and still doing its job. Cost a £1 at most.
