Exhaust hanger U bolt

[floatinghead]

Is this a bmw specific part or something I can pick up at a local parts store?. It’s rattling and the nuts are stripped so need to cut off. Just ordered some other parts to be shipped, but don’t want to pay shipping on a $5 part of I don’t have to...

 

Thanks

pretty common part for many applications ...

Generic part will work.  Just confirm the I.D. of the clamp matches the O.D. of the pipe.

 

Edit:  Sorry, I was thinking the clamp between the resonator and the muffler.  Again, see if you can find a u-clamp that matches the O.D. of the pipe AND fits through the holes in the bracket at the transmission.

 

Personally, I'd buy the OEM piece as it will have metric thread.

If you ask the folks nicely at Ireland might sell you the one that goes with this header.

I did what Paul'd do and ordered one through Blunt.

I goofed and only ordered two of the rubberized washers (for lack of a better term).

Are yours in good shape?  If not, placing a mail order might start making more sense.

 

You could grab a clamp locally, but I'd be sure to get the flaTTened kind, not all rOund.

Much better grip without deforming the pipe.

 

Size is 2" by 3" and five sixteenths ends, (assuming you are not going metric).

I did pick up a U bolt but it might be a size up on threads, so not sure it will fit through the holes on the bracket. I didn’t know they made them with flattened out sections, but mine doesnt have that. I might do as mentioned and order to the actual parts, as welll as some future need parts I guess...

Friendly Local Auto Parts Store.   Most around here are gone, now.
