I changed out my rear seat belt bolts with longer ones. I put nuts on them to hold the brackets that are welded behind my mufflers right before my turn downs. Works out pretty well and looks clean. The hangers are just a basic exhaust hanger with a strap and a flex joint in it. pretty basic stuff.

Right on the pan portion of the back seat that isnt going to poke you in the *** or the back if you sit down violently.

Question

Anybody know where to buy the above hangers that ls1muscle posted above? Local part stores preferred over having to order them.

Just responded to your pm, and I'll go ahead and post here incase others need an idea. The picture I posted was from the Texas Speed true duals, and I doubt anyone could find those exact pieces without calling TSP up and seeing if they could get them.

You can go to the local parts store and get some generic exhaust hangers for your size pipe, that would use something like the following pieces.

Thanks for the info. I've looked around locally but can only find the strap type hangers you posted. I did find a mail order site that has those square type rod hangers, but I needed them yesterday as usual. They seem to be popular with the Mustang setups for some reason.
