I wasn't happy with the muffler mounts I made last week, so I re-made them from a piece of 3/16" thick solid 304 stainless steel.
I don't have a mill... but I have a lathe!
After some finishing work:
Here is a closer view of the old mounts, which shows why I wasn't too happy with them. Not only were my tack welds and gaps unacceptable, but I decided that the material I used (22ga stainless) was a little too thin for the stresses this hanger will see.
Much better.
The rest of the exhaust is creeping rearward. I started cutting and fitting the bent and straight sections. I have been saying this for 3 months now... but I might actually be able to weld the exhaust this weekend!
