Default Need an exhaust clamp
I'm looking for an exhuast clamp for my car. It's the bottom half of the bracket, that's right after the cat. converter. The upper portion (which I have) is held on by two rubber pieces.
The part number is #473039, I believe.
Where should I go to find this piece?
Thanks,
Carl

Measure the pipe, and go to your local parts store. They have exhaust clamps.

Well the book referred to it as a clamp, but it's not like your usual exhuast clamps. I could get something to work instead, but the car is so stock, I'd rather try to get original parts first.
Thanks for the response

Just a note...if you have an aftermarket rear Y pipe (i got a stainless one on my white 79) you may need to flatten that clamp in a vise a little to actually get it to clamp the pipe .

Well a little bit of a setback, they don't have that part in stock, and will no longer be carrying them..
Now that it's known what part I need, are there any other sources?
Thanks!
