Nate,
I'm the 3rd son, so I got a hand-me-down old '69 toyota Corona as my 1st car, that was bought non running as a project car for my oldest brother. It became a whole family project, and each of us got it in turn. Much fun was had in that car. I was the one who finished it off by rolling it.
Hey, my exhaust donuts came in, and the embedded chain one's weren't too hard to install. I put 2 of those on the rear and the hard rubber ones in front of the muffler. When I looked up exhaust hangers on autohauz az, the embedded chain one's appeared as an option, along with the hard and soft rubber ones.

I'm a VW Mechnic and had a yard full of good VW's when my Son began to drive and he wanted a VW Beetle *very* badly ~ I decided to teach him and told him I'd help but he had to foot the _entire_ bill and he did . I found him the *exact* year , model and color combination he wanted then beat the price down , it was a very nice car indeed and he took far better care of it than most Teenagers do ~ in time he built it up into a Street Racer that was phenominal as it was still nice to drive daily , he was kinda a jerk about winning all the time though so some bad guys followed him and stole it . Oh well . Me ? I'da been happy with a bicycle if my Father had cared enough to give me one . -Nate Nate R. wrote :I showed it to him he wasn't impressed,I'll find him a Honda with a billion miles and throw a engine in it
