Default true dual exhaust hanger?

I know you true dual guys have to hang your exhaust with something, so with what and where? You see, the i-pipe on my loudmouth fell off and is gone so im wanting to take a 3" pipe with a spiral flow and dump it before the axle on the passenger side. What should I use to mount this? I have no welder and would like this to be a project I can do on my own. Thanks a lot guys!

thanks a lot! I realize it's not your exhaust, but do you know how those hangers attach to the exhaust? I'm assuming they are welded and I could take them to an exhaust shop and have it done.

they are welded...well at least that is how most people do it...you can weld the hangers to the car and the exhaust...or you can bolt it to the car and weld the hangers to the exhaust...either way the hangers are always welded to the exhaust...good luck...true duals are great

Use the seat belt bolts!!! I bought longer bolts with extra nuts at the hardware store. That's what is done in the pic.

There was a threaded bracket, already there, bolted to it and welded the other end to the pipe. you can see the red insulator.

Mine are hung like the pics 777 posted. No welding required. You have to remove the rear back seats and drill some holes through the floor pan. Then you can attach the bracket with nut and bolt. I put some rubber between the bracket and the floor pan to act as a gasket to help keep fumes out.
