Mine finally broke. I am still running stock down pipe with hollowed out cat.
I remember a few years back someone was rebuilding them. Does anyone remember who that was?

You can do it yourself. Drill out the rivet and get a rubber strap from the 'exhaust rigging' section at the parts store. It'll be right next to the muffler repair putty.

I have thought of that it doesn't look to be as tough of material as original.

I ran into the problem finding a durable rubber strap as well. I would avoid the auto parts store and head to a local exhaust shop or a truck (semi truck) repair facility. And definitely don't buy it from gbodyparts...t hey sent me an exhaust hangar strap that was softer than silly putty.

m233roller on TB.com already responded to me that he does not rebuild them anymore
I had the intenson of cutting a few pieces out of scrap conveyor belt at my old job, but never got it to before I left.

You have to drill the rivets to remove the small metal piece but the rubber is a nice piece.

If you want it really tough cut a section out of an old bald rear tire.
I made some suspension bushings for my TVR like that about 20 years ago :)

Hopefully I will be making some bald tires very soon.
