Exhaust hanger detached from body

Recommended Posts

While doing a checkup on my journey earlier, I noticed that the last exhaust hang at the rear end has detached from the body itself - im attaching pictures.

 

Im guessing that a new one would need to be welded on? Is there any other option? The hanger on the other side is still intact, but i dont want to risk leaving it too long - and the shops ive called are booked up for the next several days. Id prefer a diy option if possible. I tried finding videos of the same issue, but nothing came up.

Good pics ! If the oversized hole is accessible from behind, a 6" long length of threaded rod with washers could be long term fix. Cheaper than welding.

 

Welding by the plastic fuel tank won't be popular with most shops.  

 

Chicken wire fished through both visible holes could be wrapped around or through the hole on the rubber biscuit hanger part. At least give some support until full fix.

Wire brush off the loose rust off muffler hanger stud first; then wd40 or even dish soap to lube up rubber hanger; allow it to spin and align at new correct location.
