Exhaust system question

[Articifer Tom]

Here is rear bracket pic . Looks to be two piece as in lube charts . Guess I'll make up one for my truck .

Nice Picture, It explains a lot.

The entire exhaust system of the 29 Sedan seems to be a hard ridged mount.  Most exhaust systems float and allow for some play and engine to frame movement.  The 29 engine is virtually hard mounted even with the rubber motor mounts, so I guess it doesn't matter very much.  Anyone have any thoughts on the matter.  Maybe the mounts should not be tightened around the pipe to allow for some minor movement even frame flex ?

Thanks Tom.

As I recall, all of my hangers are tight with no play.

That is probably  why the first clamp is way back at muffler gives motor , little flex that they seem to have , time to work . I am going to see about getting a few measurements from .
