Michel Higuet Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) In the middle of the car, the exhaust is securely fixed to the chassis, but generally an exhaust is "suspended" with the use of silent rubber rings to prevent for vibrations, sound passing to the car ( that the case on the TR at the end with the suspended mufflers) But how to do that? Rubber placed between the part 24 and the chassis yes but still there a metallic connection with nut an bolt, idem part 25, In my life I never encounter nuts and bolt in rubber... I know the TR4 is already renown as an exceptional quiet, sound proofed car but typically of me I would add up a little touch...

Lebro Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Part 24 is not attached to the chassis, but rather to the rear of the gearbox, therefore it does not need any rubber mounting - it moves with the engine & gearbox. Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenda Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Could never get that bracket to fit right to my exhaust, so for the last 10 years after I installed the new ss exhaust I have not used it and had no problems with the exhaust.

james christie Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Not easy to fit and it must be under some stress as I have had two split along the fold. But when intact, it works well james Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lebro Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 That's where it goes, & should give no trouble ! Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michel Higuet Posted October 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Good news but bad news I need to do ramping under the TR to check, I am afraid bold it wrong 25 years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianc Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 I use that hanger, but perhaps because I have a 4-branch exhaust system, first I have to put a couple of washers and nut onto the bolt for the exhaust pipe before connecting to the exhaust clamp - this holds the exhaust pipe to the left so that it doesn't bang against the chassis forward of this clamp.
