Exhaust Rubbers/Hangers

**walshydub** · 30-06-2011, 08:02 AM

Does anyone know where i can get some rubber exhaust hangers?

I have exhausted all the usual sources and the one place i found some, Big Boys Toys, their website isn't working

Any help greatly appreciated as my exhaust is currently being held up with zip ties....

Cheers

Can't any local exhaust shop help you ?

I tried a local place and just got some head scratching and replies along the lines of "dunno what'll fit that mate, have you tried the internet".

If i can't find anything, i'll keep trying the local places. Just thought i'd ask here just in case anyone knows anyone.

Couple years back I had one missing from Back muffler and tracked one from a local muffler shop in the Gold Coast- on Ferry Road in Southport. It might have helped they also welded a new bit of pipe.
I would have thought a local shop would have different sizes? Sounds like they are just being un-helpful.

I tried at Miami Mufflers on my way home from work, who gave me the un-helpful advice. Also tried the usual suspects of Supercheap, Autobarn etc.
I just don't have time at the moment to be running around to exhaust shops all over the coast. I was just looking for the rubbers so i can fit them myself.

Found some at GAP at a very reasonable US$1.10, for future reference if anyone needs some;

Oh, are we meant to use proper OEM hangers?
My exhaust is held on with a combination of OEM hangers and these tackers...

I just went into work and chose whatever looked closest to fit haha

Those are the ones that were on my car & broke. I had one holding up the back box & one holding the pipe in the middle, both broke in the same place in the same way from fatigue. So i was looking for something a bit more robust.

You must be on their Platinum Customers list

The old ones lasted a couple of years, but i think the problem they held the exhaust too loosely so it was able to bounce around too much causing them to wear.
