I need some help...bad case of the rusties

I found some evil rusties are taking over my car...

I was driving along and I heard some rattling from under my car (i knew it was coming from the exhaust pipes) and preyed that it wasn't my last center mount on my exhaust...here is a shot of the first one to go:



That wasn't a big problem, I still had one mount...

Well...that changed today, I looked underneith investigating the sound and:

AH CRAP!!!

I need some help here so that I can figure out how I can jery rig this sucker until I can get it welded back together....arrg

For now I am going to unbolt it:




But i need a better solution on my drive to calgary arrg...

Sorry, I am unsure of your problem, is it your exhaust hangers have come/worn out or off? If so you can always use a thick wire and hang it where it should be...

If you don't mind going Ghetto Style, just use metal clothes hangers you can twist and cut them relatively easy....

Try some coat hanger and cinch it back up for the weekend. It should hold up no problem.


edit: ok so sometimes it takes a while to finish a post when you're at work and someone beat me to the ghetto style fix.
