Re: Lss3

I’ve made progress on the exhaust. The rear hangers are done. Like the other hangers, they are formed out of 3/8” SS rod. A jig was used two get accurate bends. The rod was heated cherry red with a torch to allow bending. 1/2 inch bolts were used to set the radius. Any tighter resulted in cracks.

The same Pypes rubber mounts used on the other hangers were also used here. A plate to support the mount was made out of 3/16” steel. It mounts under the bumper dress panel. The bolts holding the mount will become welded in studs so they won’t interfere with the dress panel.
