Rubber Hangers Posted by Gene N [Email] (#1094) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Gene N) on Tue, 2 Nov 2004 06:13:00 In Reply to: U-clamp and mounting clamp, chris, Mon, 1 Nov 2004 14:40:53 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The system is pretty heavy and most of the weight is on the rubber hangers on the silencer (center muffler). After going through a couple of rubber hangers, I got a some stainless steel worm drive hose clamps from the hardware store. Once the new rubber hanger was installed, I put the hose clamp on the outside the hanger and tightened it up. The steel band keeps the hanger from sagging but the rubber allows for some isolation of the vibration. This has worked for me for about 2 years without a problem.
