exhaust hangers, where from ?

Postby Brakebuster » Sun Oct 26, 2008 11:06 am

i'm due to put the refurbished rear cage back into the car, but am short of a few bits, nothing mega-important, but would be good to get

these parts are the over axle exhaust pipe rear hangers, not the ones for the back box, but the ones mounted in the cage for the top od the ' snake ' bit that goes over the axles

when i removed my old system none of these parts were present, as they had been ' bodged ' into place ,

all the parts are available from jaguar but are very expensive for what they are ( supply and demand i expect )

does anyone know where i can get all the parts required for less money , as the ones from jaguar would come to over £100

the parts i'm on about are the ones from number 22 to 29 in the link below ( x2 as i got two exhausts , lol )

The independents (S+G, DM, &c) list no 22 CAC3103 at around £6, but other than that I think their prices for pattern parts aren't much less than the Classic part ones.

That hanger always seemed to be over engineered IMO, the rod is insulated from the exhaust by 2 delron bushes (No23) presumably to cut down heat transfer, the rod is then supported inside the rubber hanger by an asbestos filled cotton reel (No27). For all that, the rod is often too short anyway and the damn thing slips out. (There's a photo in my gallery showing the rod and bushes).

I'm sure if was some lesser make of car there would just be a rubber hanger which of course only last a couple of years but would cost pennies to replace. :)
