New exhaust. Rubber or steel hangers? (1 Viewer)

[Megadoomer]

I have designed my new exhaust but I'm stuck on how to mount it. Is solid bolt on better than hanging with rubber in off road applications. I have solid motor mounts and the engine doesn't move much when i stomp the skinny pedal. What say ye? or is there some awesome cheap application i haven't seen?

Rubber

I'm with Bob, even if the motor is hard mounted, it's going vibrate some. You don't want any cracks forming.

Maybe add one of these flex pipes, I have one in mine....JEGS Performance Products 30771: Universal Flex Couplers 2-1/2" I.D. x 6" Center x 10" O.A.L. | JEGS

Danke. I was leaning towards rubber and I think it will be easier.

I used factory style rubber mounts on mine and after they sagged a bit I can hear the tubing rubbing on stuff when driving off road.
I used this style on my ultra 4 pig and wished I would have used the on the dayly pig.
