Ajsurf1 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Hey, My exhaust pipe on my 85 Toyota Dolphin rattles at low rpms. Wondering how any body would fix it? Could I use zip ties or do you think it will get too hot? Jb weld? Or should I have it tacked back on with a welder? Thanks for your help, AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Galvanized pipe hanger straps. Available at any big Home Depot type store. Wrap around exhaust and secure with a bolt through the strap holes then attach somewhere on frame the same way. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 If you attach the exhaust pipe to the frame with out a rubber isolator the noise will drive you nuts. There are 2 types of universal muffler hangers. One has 1/4" bars welded to the frame and the exhaust pipe and uses a rubber donut to hang the pipe. The other looks like this...https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/b/walker-5231/exhaust-parts-16469/exhaust-hanger-12218/afc4f7bc96d3/walker-exhaust-system-hanger/35103/4786574?q=exhaust+muffler+hanger&pos=2 .You use a regular muffler to clamp it to exhaust pipe.

Ajsurf1 Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 Hey Linda and WME thanks for getting back to me on this. WME what's do you mean by using a regular muffler to attach it to the exhaust pipe? Would you use a metal strap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Here's a hanger strap that comes with the exhaust pipe attachment. Any auto parts store will have an assortment but this is Napa. Got to be one near you and 5 bucks. You must have a hanger broken somewhere. Try to find the section that moves the most to install a new one. Or buy more than one to be sure Exhaust Hanger - Universal EXH 36272 | Buy Online - NAPA Auto Parts (napaonline.com) Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 This is the clamp used to attache the hanger to the muffler pipe. ..https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/EXT34212?keywordInput=2.5%26%23034%3b+exhaust+pipe+clamp Linda's suggestion is good too.

Ajsurf1 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Thank you. I found where the original hangar weld was busted and removed it from the rubber hanger. I jimmy rigged it with a metal coat hangar for now but orders a new hangar from Napa that should do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
