NOW have a replacement bracket and  strap assembly made from Stainless Steel
that will replace the OEM bracket and  strap assembly used on the 1.9 muffler.
I also have all those pesky rods  in stainless. All made by LEV-FAB in
Quebec.  See my _Vanagon Stainless Steel Exhaust  Systems_

Please note  that I will be away from my business travelling in Mexico from
November 24, 2008  until April 30, 2009.  Parts orders will be processed
although not as  quickly as usual.  I will always be available for contact by
E-mail.  If you phone your call will be addressed by Greg T. Brown here and he will
either call you back or advise you to contact me directly by E-mail.  Details
of this adventure are at _Buses in Bacalar_
