I just asked this same question about two weeks ago, and started my search
for this same part. Assuming your talking about the bracket that fits atop
the muffler, is attached to the three "support rods" that go to various
parts of the engine, and this is what your "muffler strap" attaches too. I
cannot find one for sale, new or used, anywhere. Well, one did come up on
the samba, but i believe it was something like $90. For that price, i'll be
making my own.

Does ANYONE out there know of this part for sale? New or used? For a
reasonable price?
They are more unobtainable than I think they should be.....
